Uganda is committed to the implementation of the National Strategy on Countering Terrorism, Terrorism Financing and Proliferation Financing. The Ministry of Internal Affairs has continuously aligned government’s legal framework to match the existing risks and assessment related to Proliferation Financing with the latest being the Anti-Terrorism (Amendment) Act 2022 and subsequently the Anti- Terrorism Regulations 2022.

Countering Proliferation Financing using United Nations Security Council Resolutions requires implementation of targeted financial sanctions. The Ministry of Internal Affairs through the appropriate diplomatic measures will coordinate the implementation and enforcement of the Targeted Financial Sanctions.

The Ministry through a consultative approach developed guidelines for implementation of Targeted Financial Sanctions to assist organisations and stakeholders to be aware of the sanctions. The Ministry in liaison with Financial Intelligence Authority and Bank of Uganda will conduct outreach programmes to create awareness on the targeted Financial Sanctions.

I, therefore, call upon organisations and all stakeholders to use these guidelines in the implementation of Targeted Financial Sanctions and also acquaint themselves with the related provisions of the international and national legal framework.

Joseph B. Musanyufu

Lieutenant General

PERMANENT SECRETARY

This report is generated from the data compiled, coordinated and monitored by the Coordination Office for Prevention of Trafficking in Persons (COPTIP) at the Ministry of Internal Affairs; in collaboration with the National Task Force Committee for Prevention of Trafficking in Persons.

Uganda was the main source country for victims of trafficking as well as transit and destination country for victims of domestic and transnational trafficking for both juveniles and adults.

Irregular and unguided labour migration was the most contributing factor for trafficking of Ugandans to foreign countries and foreign nationals to or through Uganda. Majority of the victims were recruited in the trafficking trap through deceptive means some of whom were aided with the use of fraudulent travel documents.
