Uganda, Dec. 4 -- The government has launched a number of legal tools as the country moves to become more responsive to Ugandans with disabilities.

The legal tools including the braille constitution, the audio-visual version of the Persons with Disabilities Act and the revised National Policy on Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) were launched by Vice President (VP) Jessica Alupo on Saturday.

The ceremony was part of the celebration to mark World Disability Day at Okole Primary School in Kole District.

The revised National Policy on PWDs launched on December 3, 2022, for instance, "is to guide and inform the planning process, resource allocation, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of activities with respect to PWDs."
