Under the parish development model, the Ugandan government has recently set up structures and frameworks for planning, budgeting and delivery of public services. People at the parish level are to decide development priorities under the policies formulated at the national level.

The assumption is that by getting citizens at the lowest administrative levels to identify and assign resources for their own social needs, development can tilt in favour of the poor. The overall aim, according to the plan, is to deepen the decentralisation process, improve household incomes, and increase accountability at local levels.

The loans were disbursed and the beneficiaries are allowed to use the money for two years to better their lives. After this period they are to start paying back at a 6% interest rate per year for two years and it can be paid as 46,667/= per month which makes 560,004/= every year if one decided to pay monthly
