Advising the FUE and developing a workplan for the EAEO

A three day mission was undertaken to Uganda by the DECP Country Manager Andrew Moore.

The mission had two main objectives the first was to meet with staff at the Federation of Uganda Employers (FUE) in Kampala to discuss in detail progress being made on the development of the “FUE Business Agenda” and the identification of the issues that will be included. Meetings also took place on the development of an FUE “Membership Strategy”. The preparation of the FUE Membership Pack was also discussed.

The second objective of the mission was to meet with Douglas Opio from FUE and also with Oscar Mkude from the Association of Tanzanian Employers who will be working together to take forward the East African Employers Organisation. A plan of action covering the next six months was agreed with both technical and financial support from the DECP.
