VERBATIM

Hon. Betty Amongi Ongom Quoted

“I want us to imagine a society
where every individual regardless
of their circumstances has an
opportunity to thrive. So that
social protection really serves
not just as a safety net but
a catalyst for human capital
development,” Hon. Betty
Amongi Ongom, Minister
for Gender, Labour and
Economic Development.

Hon. Gidudu Mafwabi Dominic Quoted

“A well-organised social protection system
reduces social-economic exclusions and
vulnerabilities. Not only does it create an
environment for men and women to participate
in economic development, but also reduces
government expenditure. When Government
focuses on social protection programmes and
services, the result will be an empowered and
resilient population” . Hon. Gidudu Mafwabi
