Uganda’s economy continues to perform fairly well, it is beginning to exploit its oil reserves and the country is building and revamping transport infrastructure to integrate with its neighbours and to ensure access to ports. Though the middle class is small and relatively precarious, its preference is for investing in the future rather than in consumption of goods now. The demand for higher education is strong and the country possesses one of Africa’s most highly-rated universities. Employers value tertiary qualifications, while a growing minority of students will continue to look for the additional benefit of an overseas education. The need to match skills with the needs of the labour market is leading to a greater emphasis on the Business, Technical and Vocational Education and Training (BTVET) sector, which may offer opportunities for international collaboration. This Inside Guide examines Uganda, providing an overview of key trends and offering insights on how to capitalise on potential education opportunities.
