KCCA

The Kampala Capital City Authority, commonly known as KCCA, is the governmental body responsible for the administration of Kampala, Uganda's capital city. It was established by the Kampala Capital City Authority Act of 2010, replacing the former Kampala City Council. KCCA's mandate includes providing public services, urban planning, and maintaining law and order within the city.

KCCA is overseen by an Executive Director, appointed by the President of Uganda, and a Lord Mayor, who is directly elected by the residents of Kampala. The authority is structured into various departments, each focusing on specific areas such as engineering and social services, revenue collection, and public health. Its operations are funded through a combination of government allocations and local revenue sources.

The organization plays a crucial role in addressing the challenges of rapid urbanization in Kampala, including traffic congestion, waste management, and the provision of adequate infrastructure. KCCA is also involved in beautification projects and initiatives aimed at improving the quality of life for the city's inhabitants. Its work impacts millions of people daily, making it a significant institution in Uganda's governance landscape.
