Public Interest Litigation in Uganda: A Comprehensive Case Compendium

Uganda launched its first-ever Compendium of Public Interest Litigation (PIL) Case Decisions, a groundbreaking publication that brings together 24 landmark rulings delivered by the Constitutional and Supreme Courts between 1996 and present. Compiled by the Fidelis Leadership Institute (FLI) in partnership with Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung Uganda and South Sudan (KAS), the compendium serves as a vital resource for legal practitioners, civil society, policymakers, scholars, and the general public. This carefully curated volume not only documents significant constitutional decisions but also offers thematic analyses and expert commentary, making complex legal judgments accessible and relevant to a wider audience. The cases selected address key issues such as human rights, good governance, rule of law, and the protection of vulnerable and marginalized communities.
