Speaking during the launch of the parliamentary week group today, Sekyanzi said the fund will help people living with albinism to live a healthy life despite the discrimination.
He explained that currently people with albinism struggle to access support and services due to their condition, adding that a special fund will go a long way in transforming their lives.
Sekyanzi also called for special consideration of albinos in schools, saying their exams should be printed in large fonts because of visual challenges.
He also called for the inclusion of albinism in the Universal Primary Education policy, which he said doesn't address their concerns.
The Speaker of Parliament, Rebecca Kadaga who launched the Parliament week, said there is need to legislate against the discrimination of albinos. She promised to initiate debate on albinism and how to support them when parliament resumes.
Kadaga also called on persons with albinism to apply for Parliamentary service jobs that will be advertised soon.
The week has also been dedicated to mobilising funds to build a facility for people with albinism.
About albinism
Albinism is a non-contagious, genetically inherited condition that affects people worldwide regardless of ethnicity or gender.
In order for a person to be affected by albinism, both parents must carry the gene and, in that case, there is a 25% chance that a child will be born with albinism at each pregnancy.
