Abstract:
Decentralization differs from nation to nation and from region to region; the reason for this concentration is that the majority of social services provided by the government, such as those related to health, education, water, and sanitation, are routinely failing. Investigating decentralization and service delivery in the Kamuli district was the goal of this study. Top political figures, council members, HR managers, and support workers were surveyed to gather the data. The collected data were examined using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS), and the results were then evaluated in light of the study's four primary goals. The study's key conclusions were that social welfare laws and regulations needed to be reviewed and that the government needed to make a political commitment to providing social protection to all vulnerable groups. There was no conclusive proof of past research that were comparable to this one in the literature review. According to the study's findings, the demand for social welfare services is primarily determined by factors such population growth and the rate of urbanization. Local government authorities must take this reality into account, particularly during long-term planning. The study recommends that the ministry focus on social welfare employees, as well as carrying out ongoing reviews and trainings, deliberate steps should be taken to communicate and distribute important policy materials. The government should ensure that schemes of service are frequently reviewed in order to prevent employees from remaining in a single job grade for an extended period of time. Further study on decentralization and social service delivery in Uganda is needed to aid in addressing social issues.
