The development of the National Action Plan (NAP) on Business and Human Rights follows a recommendation made during the 2016 Universal Periodic Review. In fulfillment of this recommendation, Uganda adopted and launched the NAP on Business and Human Rights on the 28th October 2021. If implemented, the NAP on Business and Human Rights will go a long way in harnessing business potential, economic development, while at the same time ensuring maintenance of human dignity for the affected communities and individuals.
