WHO WE ARE

About Us

We are an independent public policy research and advocacy think tank based in
Uganda, working in the East and Southern Africa sub-regions on a range of public
policy issues. Our core business is policy research and analysis, policy
outreach and capacity building. Recognised among the Top-100 Think Tanks
worldwide in 2017 Global Think Tank Index published by the University of
Pennsylvania. Since its founding 22 years ago, ACODE has emerged as one of the
leading regional public policy think tanks in Sub-Saharan African.

As an independent organisation, ACODE does not align with any political party or
political organisation. However, given the direct relationship between
development policy and politics, we believe that our work is political and it
must stand for certain political causes of a bi-partisan nature.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY

What People Say About Us


HON. IBRAHIM SSEMUJJU NGANDA

MEMBER OF THE UGANDAN PARLIAMENT

Without the hard work, research, and contacts with Civil Society especially
ACODE, it would have been difficult for us [MPs] to pick both interest and
knowledge in the oil and gas sector.


SHARA ELEM ACENG

FEMALE COUNCILLOR (PWD), APAC DISTRICT LOCAL GOVERNMENT COUNCIL

I want to thank ACODE for the capacity building training that I have got on my
role as a District Councillor. The training has helped me personally to know my
role as a leader and that of the communities. I now know the different
Committees, their function in the district council and my role as Chairperson of
one of the Committees. The training has really helped me improve on my work.


AMB DEBORAH MALAC

FORMER US AMBASSADOR TO UGANDA

The Governance, Accountability, Participation, and Performance Program (GAPP)
and its partners have provided research for fiscal policy reform and built
organisational capacity of both civil society and private sector partners. They
have strengthened the role of public accounts committees in Parliament and at
the district. I want to single out ACODE, which through its advocacy and policy
work has made a major impact on the legal and policy environment.


HON. PETER LOKERIS

UGANDA'S MINISTER OF STATE FOR MINERAL DEVELOPMENT

Through organising multistakeholders dialogues, ACODE has promoted a national
debate on oil governance and enhanced stakeholders’ knowledge in various aspects
of the industry and promoted stakeholder participation in the development of the
sector. I thank the people of ACODE as our partners in the dissemination of
information about the mineral sector and especially the petroleum industry.


MS CHRISTINE ECHOOKIT AKELLO

FORMER DEPUTY ED, NATIONAL ENVIRONMENT MANAGEMENT AUTHORITY (NEMA)

ACODE has done a lot in terms policy and legislative reviews for the
environmental governance in this country, as you may be aware, the National
Environment Management Policy was made way back in 1994 and so we needed to
review the performance of that policy even before we decided to have a new
policy to replace it. So ACODE was contacted by NEMA to undertake a performance
review of that policy, looking at the gaps, the challenges and where there has
been success in terms of policy implications, implementation and the fact that
the National Environment Management Policy is a framework policy that talks to
other policies that are made in the field of environment.


HON. WILFRED NIWAGABA

MEMBER OF THE UGANDAN PARLIAMENT AND SHADOW ATTONEY GENERAL

ACODE contributed to the development of policy, legislation and institutional
framework that relate to oil and gas sector. They also sponsored provisions in
the oil and gas policies, laws and regulations that were adopted by the
government. ACODE brought in experts to explain particular clauses to the
Members of Parliament and generally made Members aware of their role. Most
importantly, ACODE contributed towards strengthening Parliament's capacity to
legislate for the oil and gas sector through training workshops for
Parliamentarians which raised their knowledge levels and triggered formation of
the Parliamentary Forum on Oil and Gas - a platform that has worked to improve
oversight on the sector over the years.


MR. SWIZEN MUGYEMA

COMMISSIONER LOCAL COUNCIL DEVELOPMENT, MINISTRY OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT

The Scorecard initiative by ACODE has enhanced and encouraged positive
competition because every other political leader in the districts where ACODE
has conducted the assessment, there has been a tendency of people trying to do
their best to appear at the end of the assessment as being reflected with a
positive performance or the best performance among the elected leaders. The
scorecard has been the best way to get an assessment of their performance and
disseminate it to the electorate because those are the judges who determines
their stay in office.


HON. IBRAHIM SSEMUJJU NGANDA

MEMBER OF THE UGANDAN PARLIAMENT

Without the hard work, research, and contacts with Civil Society especially
ACODE, it would have been difficult for us [MPs] to pick both interest and
knowledge in the oil and gas sector.
