The Theoretical and Practical Considerations of Community Service in Uganda

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the theoretical and practical considerations surrounding community service in Uganda. The examination used a document analysis approach in a bid to assess the community service approach and its prospects in Uganda. The study reveals the significance of inter-departmental changes in terms of the community and community-oriented goals as well as the role of inter-agency collaboration. The Threatening consequences to community service were equally addressed within the context of the Kampala metropolitan free zone. The study recommends setting out a plan for the Kampala metropolitan area's expected growth from about 3 million to more than 5 million by the year 2015 since major concerns of civil mayhem have to be prioritized just like public safety issues on how to lessen them by using community service principles.
