dc.description	The study concluded that factors such as commitment to international law, national legal obligations, public opinion, and human development, conditioned the government’s promotion of the right to education. The study further found that the government of Uganda promotes the right to education by offering free universal education at primary and secondary school levels for citizens who cannot afford the cost of education offered by private schools. The government of Uganda has built partnerships with organizations that have contributed to expanding access to education, especially for underprivileged children. The government of Uganda has engaged parents to support its efforts in ensuring that all children enjoy the right to education namely, by asking them to provide lunch for children while at school.	en_US
