"At the centre of this update is construction. It is where growth can become jobs. If Uganda gets this sector right,.. it will create jobs for many young Ugandans. Even though this may not happen automatically, skills development is key. We must consider prioritising the regulation of the sector to create better conditions for all involved. From land acquisition, financing, and recruitment of skilled technical labour."
