Abstract Uganda was one of the first countries in East Africa to regulate the labour migration sector in the mid- 2000s, although Ugandan labour migration has recently suffered from increased competition from proactive neighbors Ethiopia and Kenya. The sector lacks public high level political support meaning that funding and regulation of the industry has been slow and reactive. However, Uganda also hosts the largest refugee population in Africa, and has well developed policies for refugee management.
