I had the honor of attending The Kids Fashion Runway – Purpose in Motion Edition. Beyond the fashion and the smiles, it was such a beautiful reminder that every child deserves to feel seen, celebrated, included, and loved for exactly who they are. To the amazing children who owned that runway with so much confidence, you inspired us all. I was also deeply humbled to be recognized as an Inclusion Champion and had a moment to walk the runway.

Today, I had the honour of giving the key note address at the launch of Uganda’s 1st National Rehabilitation & Assistive Technology Strategic Plan 2025–2030 by the Ministry of Health. @MinofHealthUG This strategy is a major step toward ensuring equitable access to quality rehabilitation and assistive technology services for all Ugandans, especially persons with disabilities and other marginalized groups. At CBM, we believe rehabilitation and assistive technology are not privileges, they are essential to dignity, inclusion, independence, and participation. Together, let us move from policy to action and ensure no one is left behind. #DisabilityInclusion #Rehabilitation #AssistiveTechnology #InclusiveHealth

Honored to represent CBM Uganda at the Beyond the canvas - Abilities Beyond Limits, Youth Connect 2026 organized and hosted by @reachahand It was truly inspiring to listen to @nickvujicic as he engaged with young leaders, creatives, advocates, and partners advancing disability inclusion. At CBM Uganda, we believe inclusion is about dignity, opportunity, and ensuring every young person can participate fully and reach their potential. Grateful to @reachahand and all partners for creating such a powerful platform for conversation, advocacy, visibility, and hope.

Bringing impact where it matters most. Through the ECO-FOOD Uganda project, we are working towards building resilient, food-secure communities while ensuring that women, youth, and persons with disabilities are not left behind, but are at the center of change. Through partnerships and community engagement, we continue to support inclusive initiatives that empower lives, strengthen livelihoods, and ensure no one is left behind.

As we come to the close of the year, we pause with gratitude for life, for partnership, and for the work we continue to do together. I am thankful for the relationships that make our mission possible and for the trust we share with our partners and communities. May the season bring rest, renewal, and hope as we prepare for the year ahead. Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a peaceful, purpose-filled New Year.

Honoured to represent CBM Uganda at the Global M&E Expo’s first anniversary, and deeply humbled that both CBM and I were recognized for our contribution to strengthening evidence, inclusion, and accountability.

Congratulations to the @evaluationbench for building a powerful movement of evaluators who make evidence practical and usable.

Today, on the International Day of Persons with Disabilities, we reflect on Uganda’s theme: Financial Inclusion as a Key to Economic Empowerment. I am proud that CBM Uganda continues to stand with government, OPDs, and partners to build systems that make inclusion real, in health, education, skills, and financial access. Grateful to the @Mglsd_UG for recognising CBM’s contribution to disability inclusion in Uganda. This honor belongs to our partners, our dedicated teams, and above all, to persons with disabilities who lead and inspire this movement every day. We were also honored to be featured in today’s @newvisionwire , highlighting our work and collective impact across the country.

Today, I had the honor of joining @MinofHealthUG and development partners in Masindi district to commemorate the World Sight Day 2025 under the theme “Love Your Eyes” This day is always a powerful reminder that sight is more than vision, it’s dignity, independence, and opportunity. At CBM Uganda, we are deeply committed to ensuring that no one is left behind because of avoidable blindness or visual impairment. Through collaboration with the Government Line Ministries, INGOs, local partners, hospitals, and community based organizations, we continue working to make quality eye health accessible to everyone, especially those in hard-to-reach communities.

This weekend, CBM Uganda partnered with @RACUpperKololo to visit the Hydrocephalus & Spina Bifida Home in Katabi. Families of children living with hydrocephalus and spina bifida too often face stigma and exclusion. This home offers a safe, supportive community where dignity and hope are restored. In line with CBM’s mission to advance disability inclusion, we combined psychosocial support with practical, income-generating skills bead-making and reusable sanitary towel production so mothers can build sustainable livelihoods while caring for their children. We commend @RACUpperKololo for exemplary partnership and service to humanity.
