The government has pledged to increase funds and scholarships for Persons with Disabilities in response to the rising population of individuals with disabilities, says Dr. John Chrysestom Muyingo, the State Minister for Higher Institutions of Learning.
Dr Muyingo represented Education Minister Janet Museveni during the official opening of the East African Dialogue on Children with Disabilities at Kyambogo University, which aimed at assessing the status of PWDs in Uganda.
As Disability Day is celebrated worldwide, Dr. Muyingo reaffirmed the government’s commitment to supporting PWDs by allocating more funds and scholarships, particularly for school-aged children. END
