We were on the ground today as partners for the #KampalaCleanAirWalk, capturing real-time #airquality data along the route.

Our team @Gramsen22 and @BethKiconco monitored #airpollution levels throughout the walk.

Proud to contribute data that drives action.

[Kampala Community Walk @Kampalawalks]

#DYK that having #urbantreecover in an area reduces the levels of air pollution?

We are walking for #CleanAir at Nakasero 📍 and air pollution levels are low.

On 26th September 2025, as the world marked World Environmental Health Day 2025, @MUEHSA1 proudly joined the Kampala Cycling Day organized at Makindye KCCA Division under the theme “Healthy People, Healthy City.”
The event, graced by the Executive Director of KCCA @Buzeki_Sharifah @KCCAED, brought together city leaders, professionals and communities to highlight the power of cycling as a sustainable means of transport and a pathway to clean air. With every pedal, it showed that a healthier city begins with healthier choices.
MUEHSA’s involvement highlighted our continued commitment to advancing environmental health and championing solutions that tackle air pollution while promoting active lifestyles. Together, we cycled for clean air and healthier communities.

🌍 Linking local air quality to health outcomes sparks real action from governments to communities.
But context is everything. Pollution sources vary, & without local insight, solutions can miss the mark.
Let’s co-create practical, place-based strategies that truly improve lives.

[AirQo @AirQoProject]

Ahead of #CleanAirDay, we reflect on the progress made through data, policy & community action, and the work still ahead.

This study, done in Kampala🇺🇬, shows the real impact of polluted air on people’s health, linking it to increased #asthma and #pneumonia cases. This evidence provides valuable insights for shaping policies & protecting our communities.

AI isn’t replacing you. It’s revealing you.
We don’t fear AI because it’s powerful.
We fear it because it mirrors how predictable we have become.

Let’s unpack this 👇

You won’t THINK your way into passion, you have to ACT.

- Take a class or workshop
- Start a side project
- Try freelancing or shadow someone in a field you admire

Passion is built through doing, not waiting.

[Makerere University School of Public Health @MakSPH]

A refreshing day!

@WHO recommends consuming at least 400g (about five portions) of fruits and vegetables daily to reap these health benefits (the size of your fist). Our latest findings show 86% of the population is not consuming enough. @drkasenene, over to you. #FightNCDs
