The Vision of NRM is a peaceful, united, democratic, harmonious, industrialised, transformed and prosperous Uganda within a strong and united Africa.
The Mission of NRM is to transform Uganda from a poor peasant society into a modern, industrial, united and prosperous society.
NRM is a national, broad based, inclusive, democratic, non-sectarian, multi-ideological, multi-interest and progressive mass organization.

NRM is a national, broad based, inclusive, democratic, non-sectarian, multi-ideological, multi-interest and progressive mass organization. The NRM helped lift Uganda out of cyclic misery; got them out of the pit of tyranny and dehumanization. It also ended the shameful sectarianism promoted by colonialism and characteristic of the backward pre-industrial societies that do not have enough horizontal linkages. There is no doubt that the Movement was and still is the best system for a pre-industrial society like Uganda. The Movement system has been very democratic and very progressive. Apart from restoring the vote to the dis-enfranchised people of Uganda, NRM have empowered, in a very special way, the women, the youth, the disabled and the workers.
Power has been decentralized up to the village level. This is a most democratic system that brought unity to our people by ending unprincipled frictions in the villages. Such people should be identified and punished. There is no need to coerce a free Ugandan to agree with you. If somebody does not agree with you or is sceptical about your position, that is his/her right. You have no right to resent him or be violent towards him/her. Such attitudes are a negation of the freedom that is a product of the NRM Revolution. There is now political opposition and activity that goes unhindered provided its by peaceful means aiming for peaceful. It is their right.

Vigorous, sustained growth is continuing to lay the foundations for a genuine paradigm shift in Africa. Thus the World Economic Forum on Africa in 2008 will explore how the continent’s leaders can ensure that this trend continues and leads to positive change.
