As we head to the general elections, let us look at how women are represented in Uganda's public sector. #UGWomenInPublicSector
Among town clerks and Chief administrative officers, only 7.1% and 8.6% of officers are female, leaving a huge gender gap in local government administration in the upper echelon of district and town leadership.
#UGWomenInPublicSector
Only 34% of women are directors compared to their male counterparts, and this is compounded at assistant commissioner levels where only 48 out of 209 officers are female (23%). #UGWomenInPublicSector
Out of the entire public service of over 250,000 employees, females account for only 33%. While progress has no doubt been made, job allocation in public service at senior level is still significantly skewed towards men. #UGWomenInPublicSector
Out of 3,280 representatives in district councils, 1,364 were women which is 41.6 % of the total. Likewise, the proportion of women councilors and chairpersons in municipality and sub-county were 41.9% respectively in 2016. #UGWomenInPublicSector
Currently, 2019/2020 there are 10 women cabinet ministers (32%) out of 31 (68% male) and 17 women ministers of state (35%) out of 49 (65% male). #UGWomenInPublicSector
By 2016, women cabinet ministers accounted for 36% and state ministers account for 30%, compared to 64% and 30% respectively, for men. #UGWomenInPublicSector
According to the UBOS , the 10th Parliament (2016-2021) comprises a 35% representation for women up from 14% in the 5th parliament in context of an increased number of districts through which majority of women MPs are elected on the affirmative action seat. #UGWomenInPublicSector
