Revenue is the money government collects mainly through taxes to fund schools, hospitals, roads, and essential public services.

When Uganda mobilizes enough revenue, it reduces the need to borrow and strengthens our ability to invest in development. But when revenue collection is low, the government becomes more dependent on external grants and loans, which can limit our fiscal independence.

Strong revenue mobilization means:

• More money for education, health, and infrastructure.
• Less reliance on debt and aid.
• Greater national control over development priorities.
• A more resilient and self-sustaining economy.
