This afternoon at State House Entebbe, I presided over the launch of the National Dialogue Process, which is overseen by six key players.
These are Citizens Coalition for Electoral Democracy in Uganda, The National Consultative Forum, the Inter-Religious Council of Uganda, Inter Party Organization for Dialogue, The Elders’ Forum of Uganda, The Women’s Situation Room, The Uganda Women’s Network and the Government.
I am delighted to take part in this process, as an opportunity to engage people of differing view points and also offer our position. This is not the first time in our country’s history to dialogue, we did this during the making of the Constitution in the Constituent Assembly.
We must be mindful in this process not to water down our achievements, while finding solutions to cited challenges. We hope to find a baseline to refer to questions of our values, diversity, management of natural resources, national history, constitutionalism and the rule of law.
The government is committed to this endeavour and I invite you all to pay attention to, and where it is required, take part in this process. I thank you.
