Uganda Women Entrepreneurship Programme is an initiative of the government of Uganda being implemented as a rolling programme under Ministry of Gender Labour and Social Development.  It is designed to address the challenges women face in undertaking economically viable enterprises like limited access to affordable credit, limited technical knowledge and skills for business development, limited access to markets as well as information regarding business opportunities. UWEP therefore provides the opportunity to enhance financial inclusion, promote entrepreneurship development and effective participation of women in the economic development of the country.

Madi Okollo started implementing this programme in the financial year 2016/17 when it was under Arua district.
