A Ugandan judicial official has highlighted the court system's critical function in fighting corruption at a major UN conference. Grace Atwongyeire, an acting deputy registrar from the Mbarara High Court, spoke at the event in Doha, Qatar. She participated in a panel about judicial integrity in Africa's digital age with representatives from Kenya and Nigeria.

Atwongyeire detailed national reforms like enforcing a judicial code of conduct and creating oversight committees. She also pointed to digital tools adopted by Uganda, such as an electronic case management system, designed to increase transparency and limit graft. Her comments included a call for other nations to bolster their own judicial inspectorates and invest in cybersecurity.

The Ugandan delegation to this conference is led by Ethics Minister Akello Rose Lilly. It includes senior figures from various anti-corruption agencies. The country's involvement signals its continued focus on using technology and legal accountability to address corruption both domestically and through international cooperation.
