Uganda Bureau of Statistics (UBOS) is the national statistical agency mandated to coordinate, supervise, and monitor the National Statistical System (NSS) to ensure the production of quality, timely, and relevant official statistics for informed decision-making and national development. With a strong reputation for statistical excellence and integrity, UBOS plays a critical role in shaping Uganda’s socio-economic planning by providing data used by government, private sector, civil society, and development partners.

The organization fosters a professional and collaborative work culture that values competence, integrity, and innovation, offering diverse career opportunities, structured training programs, and flexible work arrangements to enhance employee growth and effectiveness. Established by the UBOS Act of 1998, the Bureau has evolved into a modern data-centric institution that leverages advanced technology and international best practices in data collection, analysis, and dissemination. Its business model focuses on decentralization and inclusivity, with statistical offices across all regions of Uganda ensuring nationwide coverage and accessibility.
