#WorldEnvironmentDay🌍
The question is not whether the signals exist—it's whether we use data to understand and act on them.
When used effectively, data can reveal patterns in waste generation, environmental degradation, resource use, and climate risks—transforming information into insights that drive smarter decisions and meaningful action.
Data and innovation have the power to help decision-makers anticipate challenges, allocate resources more effectively, and build communities that are more resilient, sustainable, and prepared for the future.
Better data = better decisions = a more sustainable tomorrow.

WORLD ENVIRONMENT DAY
This #WorldEnvironmentDay, we’re highlighting an invisible challenge in waste management: data gaps.
Without reliable data, cities can't see uncollected waste or hold service providers accountable.
Tools like SafiSiti are helping cities such as @jinjacity identify gaps and improve waste management decisions.
#WasteManagement #DataForGood #WorldEnvironmentDay
🚨 Happening Today!
Every day, city leaders make decisions that affect millions of lives. The question is: are those decisions informed by data?
Join the #DataFest2026 for the @DataCitiesUg side event, The Urban Data Clinic: Resuscitating 'Blind' Governance in East Africa's Emerging Cities.
📅 Today
🕒 4:00 pm
📍 🔗 Join here: https://t.co/kfVfZKEh3y
With lessons from @jinjacity and @FortPortalCity1, we'll explore how urban data can support better planning, more efficient service delivery, and stronger local governance.
@UNGlobalPulse, we see these discussions as opportunities to advance the use of data for the public good—helping cities move from reacting to challenges to anticipating and proactively addressing them.
Don't miss the conversation.

Every June, Namugongo becomes one of Africa's largest faith tourism destinations. This is where Faith meets Data.
In 2025, an estimate of 2.5 – 3 million people participated in Martyrs Day-related activities, making it one of the continent's largest annual gatherings.
@UNGlobalPulseUG partners with governments to harness timely, granular data on visitor flows, service demand, and economic impact — and translate it into policy-ready evidence. These insights call for inclusive data systems.

#PictureMonday
This Monday, we’re sharing a glimpse of the people behind the research.👌
Our team doesn’t just analyze information—we are part of the data collection. From tourism sites to local communities, we work alongside partners in the field to understand challenges, opportunities, and experiences that numbers alone cannot fully capture.
It is these field moments that remind us that data collection is about people🙎🏾♀️, places, and real-world experiences that shape better insights and decisions.
#DataForGood
What does data-driven governance look like in one of Uganda's newest cities? @jinjacity is heading to #GlobalDataFestival2026 to share exactly that.
Christine Cynthia Kayongo (City Planner), Hon. Ssozi Juma (City Speaker), and Brian Nyangor (Statistician) will be representing @jinjacity at our side event — "The Urban Data Clinic: Resuscitating 'Blind' Governance in East Africa's Emerging Cities" — bringing the voice of Uganda's cities to a regional conversation on evidence-based urban governance.

When the Data ecosystem works, better decisions follow.
In @FortPortalCity1, we are helping build one — connecting hotels, tour operators, and city planners into a single picture.
From AI and space intelligence to urban planning and public service delivery, the conversations at #GlobalDataFestival2026 are exploring how data can solve real-world challenges.
We’re excited to be part of the festival with a DataCities side event: The Urban Data Clinic: Resuscitating ‘Blind’ Governance in East Africa’s Emerging Cities.
Join the DataCities team — Prof. Engineer @iBaino, Dr. @mmubangizi15, and Dr. @emwebaze — as we explore how emerging cities can move from blind spots to evidence-based governance.
