Uganda's Health Sector Through Turbulent Politics

In Uganda's Health Sector Through Turbulent Politics (1958-2018), Professor Anthony K. Mbonye examines the evolution, challenges, and milestones of healthcare delivery in Uganda across six pivotal decades. Drawing on his extensive background as a professor at Makerere University's College of Health Sciences and his tenure as Acting Director General of Health Services at the Ministry of Health, the author offers a detailed perspective on how national politics have shaped medical institutions, policies, and community health services.

Covering the period from the late colonial era through successive regimes and political shifts up to 2018, this book provides essential context for understanding the structural and administrative hurdles Uganda's healthcare system has faced. It is an invaluable resource for medical professionals, public health researchers, policymakers, and university students seeking a comprehensive history of public health administration and political governance in Uganda.
