Don't just talk about climate change; plant something that can fight it.

🇪🇺🌳 EU–Uganda Forestry Partnership Strengthened
The EU Delegation in Uganda met officials from @min_waterUg@ForestryMgt_MWE to discuss implementation, coordination and partnership under the Partnering for Forests (P4F) project.
Just think about it: if trees could send money to our mobile phones, we’d protect every forest.
Funny how we ignore the things that keep us alive for free.
Plan to join us for the National Tree Planting Day.
Date: Friday, 2 October 2026
Venue: NaFORRI, Mukono

Accountability becomes difficult when responsibility is treated as one large basket. A ministry, regulator, local government, public corporation, statutory agency, and private service provider may all interact with the same issue while having completely different responsibilities.
When something goes wrong, therefore, the first useful question is not always “Who has failed?” It can be “Who had the mandate to prevent, manage or resolve this particular problem?” That distinction matters.
It prevents us from directing legitimate public frustration at institutions that do not have the authority to act, while also making it harder for responsible institutions to hide behind general explanations. Good citizenship is not simply knowing how to complain. It is knowing enough about the system to direct the complaint to the right place. Accountability becomes stronger when it is specific.
@min_waterUg, @ForestryMgt_MWE Officials under the *Partnering for Forests development project* (P4F) meet to discuss sustainable wood based value chains in Uganda at Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) office.
The Archbishop of the @ChurchofUganda_, Rev. Dr. Stephen Kaziimba Mugalu, joined religious leaders, young people, and other stakeholders to mark 25 years of his service in the Inter-Religious Council of Uganda and to commemorate International Youth Day 2026.

A traditional technique practiced by young shepherds of Ethiopia’s Banna tribe.
They walk on stilts to watch over their livestock in tall grass, navigate wetland areas, and stay safe from snakes and predators such as lions and leopards.
It demands strength, balance, and training starting from childhood.
