Introduction
In Uganda, as with many developing countries, information regarding the numbers and functions of NGOs is incomplete and not current. Fortunately, in the case of Uganda, a well-designed and rigorous study was carried out by consultants from Oxford University under the auspices of the Office of the Prime Minister and funded by the World Bank to survey the scope and activities of NGOs in Uganda, as well as assess service recipient satisfaction. This article draws heavily from that report. The other major source of information is a large-scale survey of member organizations conducted by the Uganda National NGO Forum, a networking body for NGOs in Uganda which claims to have approximately 67% representation from organizations in the NGO sector across the country. (Uganda NGO Forum, 2003).
