UGANDA AIDS COMMISSION

Uganda AIDS Commission (UAC) was set up by an Act of Parliament (Cap 208) in 1992. The Commission’s mandate is to coordinate and oversee the prevention and control of HIV and AIDS activities in Uganda. The Commission does not engage in direct implementation of interventions but takes strategic leadership in effective harmonization of action by the various players, within agreed policy and programs under thePrinciples of “Three Ones”:

    » One National HIV/AIDS Coordinating Authority
    » One Strategic Plan
    » One Monitoring and Evaluation Framework
The Institution is composed of both the Commission (Board) and Secretariat (Management).  In 2015, Uganda AIDS Commission developed a Strategic Plan (2015/16 – 2019/20) to achieve its Vision, Mission, Goal and Objectives.
