HOLISTIC POLICY MAKING AND GOOD GOVERNANCE PRACTICES AS A DEVELOPMENT MODEL FOR POVERTY ERADICATION SUCCESS IN UGANDA 1986 - 2020

The degree of poverty eradication outcomes of any poverty eradication policy intervention depends on the nature of the poverty eradication policy formulated and on the governance environment within which the policy is formulated and implemented. The more holistic a poverty eradication policy is, the more likely it is to produce positive and sustainable poverty reduction outcomes and vice versa but also conditional to the extent of good governance so accorded in the policy making environment. The study was conducted in Uganda covering the governance period 1986– 2020 and it employed a multiple case study design as well as a combination of quantitative and qualitative research designs.
