It was founded in 1993 to bring together the voluntary initiatives of citizens to enhance accountability, transparency, and integrity amongst all Ugandans. It is a registered Non-Governmental organization (NGO) working to create change towards a Uganda free of corruption. Transparency International Uganda works to address all forms of corruption with a specific emphasis on improved service delivery and good governance.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">TI-Uganda partners with local organizations, governments, communities, civil society, individuals, media and the private sector in order to bring about developmental change. TI-Uganda considers women, youth and people with disability as special groups and empowers them with Knowledge to enable them actively participate in their activities at all levels. Transparency International believes that fundamental change will happen in Uganda with a shift in policies and practice, when citizens will be able to exercise and claim their rights and responsibilities as enshrined in the Constitution of the country.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][vc_column offset=&#8221;vc_col-lg-6 vc_col-md-6&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1986&#8243;
