What if the problem isn’t the child—but the education system itself?

Many African children are being taught in systems that were never designed around their realities, strengths, or aspirations.

💡 In this thought-provoking conversation, we explore a new approach to education—one that empowers learners to take ownership of their future and become who they were meant to be.

“How do we change education for the African child to make it meaningful for everyone?” - Dr. Lawrence Muganga educator, Vice Chancellor of Victoria University.

🔥 🔥@newvisionwire :Thank you for this headline. However, it would have been better if it stated that Doctors and students reject the new (oppressive) policy!

[Dr. Faith Nabushawo @faith_nabushawo]

Me as an Intern’s supervisor I would feel so ashamed asking the intern to be on duty on time and questioning why they’re not performing to their expectation or absent while knowing they’re not facilitated and definitely thinking of how they’re going to pay rent, transport to work let alone what to eat. 💔😔

[FEDERATION FOR UGANDA MEDICAL INTERNS (FUMI) @FUMI20232024]

The Federation stands with all medical students/fraternity in rejecting the unfair policy being imposed on them. We believe this serves no good and call upon the MOH and MOES to
#RevisethePolicy.

🔥 Congulatulations Hon @CHRISBARYOMUNS1 🎉
🔥 We thank God for saving you last time, perhaps it was for a day such as this.
🔥 As Medical educators, we humbly ask that you address the plight of interns once and for all!
🔥 Medical Training/ Practice in Uganda needs a face lift.

The 5 year Bachelor of pharmacy curriculum revision is a proactive response to the evolving global healthcare landscape. It shifts the program from a traditional knowledge-based model to a Competency-Based Education (CBE) framework. This ensures that Ugandan University pharmacy graduates are not just "holders of information," but are practitioners equipped with the functional skills required in modern clinical, industrial, and regulatory environments.
With reference from @Makerere Bachelor of pharmacy 2024 revised curriculum :-
1. Shift to Competency-Based Learning
Section 1.11 & 1.12 .
The core justification for the revision is the alignment with the National Council for Higher Education (NCHE) standards for Competence-Based Education.
• The old curriculum focused heavily on theory. The revised version emphasizes experiential learning, where 60% of assessment is targeted toward practical skills. This addresses the "skills gap" previously identified by stakeholders in the Ugandan pharmaceutical sector.
2. Integration of Emerging Pharmaceutical Sciences
(Page 348-349). The curriculum introduced and expanded specialized domains that were previously underrepresented.
• Data Science and Pharmaceutical Calculations: This acknowledges the role of "Big Data" in drug discovery and patient management.
• Nuclear Pharmacy & Biotechnology: New focus areas prepare students for advanced therapeutic modalities like radiopharmaceuticals and biologics.
• Pharmacogenomics: Shifting the focus toward Personalized Medicine, ensuring graduates understand how genetic variations affect drug response.
3. Enhanced Clinical and Veterinary Pharmacy Practice
Section 1.12 (Key Changes) and Table 13 (Comparison of Implementation Structures).
• Clinical Pharmacy: The curriculum increases bedside clinical exposure.
• Veterinary Pharmacy: A distinct inclusion  justifies the "One Health" approach, recognizing that pharmacists in Africa play a critical role in managing both human and animal medicines, particularly in rural settings.
4. Regulatory and Industrial Readiness
Justification for Revision (Section 1.7).
• Industrial Pharmacy & Cosmetics Science: The curriculum now includes robust training in local manufacturing and cosmetic formulation. This is a direct response to Uganda's "Buy Uganda Build Uganda" (BUBU) policy, aimed at reducing reliance on imported pharmaceuticals.

This curriculum does not merely add "more work"; it reshapes the "way of working." It moves the pharmacist from the periphery of the healthcare team to the center of therapeutic decision-making.

I had the distinct privilege of moderating the 2026 Uganda Pharmaceutical Symposium Quiz; an experience that was as intellectually stimulating and inspiring.🤩

Bringing together some of the brightest pharmacy minds, the quiz is more than just a competition. Its brains at work
