    (Addis Ababa University, 2015-06) Eva Kasiisa; B.T. Costantinos
    The purpose of this study is to look at the perception of the selected individuals that is gender and persons with disabilities towards the implementation of affirmative action in the education sector in Kampala-Uganda. This research used both qualitative and quantitative methods to examine the policy contributions in the education sector. The instruments utilised to collect data were questionnaire, interview and secondary nformation sources. To report the findings, descriptive statistics were used. On the whole, the findings indicate that gender and persons with disabilities are still discriminated even though government states that affirmative policies have been implemented in the education sector. Hence both gender and persons with disabilities facing problems like women not being represented equally with men. Also persons with disabilities are not considered with facilities needed in the education sector and still discriminated. As a result, the study provides some recommendations aimed at redressing the situation where by the government has to put an independent ministry dealing with the marginalised groups so that it keeps on monitoring and evaluating these services. Also to make sure that all facilities are provided for gender and disabilities thus improve on the policy implementations of affirmative action in the education sector
