STA3: Has Uganda’s economic growth increased your standard of living?

Background
In a few months you will have the chance to vote, and we want to know what issues matter to you in these elections. That is why we are working together with 10 other radio stations throughout Uganda. Together, we are asking people about issues that matter. Join the debate by sending in your opinion. This week we're discussing the youth. 

Has Uganda’s economic growth increased your standard of living?In the last five years, Uganda’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) has increased yearly by an average of 5%. However, GDP is an average number that measures the size of the entire economy and doesn’t say much about the personal income of people. It also doesn’t include other factors that can result from economic growth and may improve your life, such as access to healthcare, housing, or clean water.
