Patience Nagaba Highlights the Power of Local Digital Infrastructure at SODE 2026

@nagabapatie's presentation highlighted the need for Uganda to make the shift from digital consumption to digital creation by investing in resilient, locally owned digital infrastructure. She demonstrated how RENU's high-speed connectivity, trusted digital identity, cloud platforms, and AI infrastructure are empowering research, education, innovation, and global collaboration, while calling for continued investment in research and education as the foundation of Uganda's digital economy.

We extend our sincere appreciation to Next Media for convening another impactful State of the Digital Economy and for providing a platform for meaningful conversations that continue to shape Uganda's digital future.

RENU to Scale Up Industrial Training Program for University Students

Uganda's higher education institutions are required by the Ministry of Education and Sports (@Educ_SportsUg) to implement a new Competence-Based Education and Training (CBET) curriculum in 2027, with the main objective being to equip learners with critical thinking, and practical, industry-relevant skills, thereby reducing youth unemployment and building a workforce that's ready to drive Uganda's economic transformation.

This calls for strengthening the connection between academia and industry.

To support Uganda's higher education institutions in rolling out and implementing the new CBET curriculum, RENU will expand its Industrial Training Program from accommodating only 10 students annually to at least 200 students each year. RENU's Industrial Training Program provides university students with structured, hands-on workplace experience in ICT, digital technologies and other fields, enabling them to apply classroom knowledge, develop industry-relevant skills, and prepare for careers in research, education, and the digital economy.

For over 10 years, RENU has prepared university students with practical industry experience in various fields, and more than 100 students have benefitted from the program since inception.

We appreciate @Makerere University for recognising the value of this program and look forward to working with higher education institutions across the country to shape the next generation that will drive Uganda's economic transformation.
