Working with PPDA and the Ministry of Finance, Planning and Economic Development regulations for preference and reservation schemes to ensure that procurement and disposal entities (PDEs) allocate procurement contracts to youth, women and persons with disabilities to meet the 30% target of national, spend were developed. To ensure popularization of these recommendations, 177 women entrepreneurs from Kampala, Lira, Tororo and Bushenyi gained skills to participate in public procurement and were able to demonstrate their capabilities in bidding for works and services locally.
