Uganda is set to host the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) Ministerial Mid-Term Review Conference from October 13–16, 2025 at the Speke Resort Munyonyo.
The conference will run under the theme“Deepening Cooperation for Shared Global Affluence.”
The meeting follows Uganda’s successful hosting of the 19th NAM Summit of Heads of State and Government in January 2024, which positioned the country as a key voice for the Global South.
The revelation was made by the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Vincent Waiswa Bagiire who noted that the preparations are progressing smoothly.
According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the government is in the final stages of preparation to welcome delegations from NAM member states, observer countries and international organizations. The conference will deliberate on pressing global issues, including poverty eradication, the Gaza humanitarian crisis, global governance reforms, and Africa’s representation in the UN Security Council.
“The Government, through its various Ministries, Departments, and Agencies, is in advanced stages of preparation to ensure a successful conference,” Bagiire said.
He added, “We shall host delegations from Member States, Observer Countries, and Observer Organizations of the Non-Aligned Movement.”
The agenda is expected to reaffirm NAM’s commitment to addressing global inequalities and promoting peace, human rights, and sustainable development. The ministers will also assess progress made since the Kampala Summit and finalize key policy documents to guide the Movement toward the 20th NAM Summit in Uzbekistan.
Bagiire emphasized that the government will implement strict access and security measures around the conference venue to ensure a smooth event.
“Given the nature of the meeting, there will be controlled access in and around Munyonyo,” he said.
He added,“The public is requested to support the Government in ensuring the success of the conference through complying with any traffic control measures that will be put in place.”
The upcoming Ministerial Mid-Term Review is expected to attract international attention and further consolidate Uganda’s role as a leading voice in championing the aspirations of the Global South within multilateral platforms.
