"According to Ms. Hildah Tumuhe, Ug's 2021 audit report revealed that only 66% of projects included in the Public Investment Plan had undergone feasibility studies. Poor project preparation contributes to costly delays, budget overruns, & rising public debt."

When countries spend more on debt than on doctors, schools, or food, people pay the price:
Impact:
- Billions of people are affected
-Interest rates are stacked against growing nations
-Trillions of $ flow out of poorer countries yearly.
#FreedomFromDebtUG#DebtRelief
3.4 billion people live in countries that spend more on debt servicing than on health and education.
We need to liberate the country's economic structures by creating financial dependency.
#FreedomFromDept#DebtRelief#FinancialFreedom@CSBAGUGANDA
Did you know?.
Developing nations pay up to 10x higher interest rates & about $3 trillion flows from poorer countries to richer ones every yr through debt payments & loopholes. We need automatic debt pauses during health crises.
#FreedomFromDebtUG#DebtRelief@CSBAGUGANDA
The global debt crisis is a human rights issue.
When unfair debt payments are prioritized over people, life-saving programs for climate resilience, access to education, & healthcare suffer, leaving 3.4 billion people without resources to live with dignity. #FreedomFromDebtUG
Growing countries pay two to ten times higher interest rates than richer nations while also losing billions of $ that flow out each yr through debt financial leakage, often back into rich countries.
📌Citizens demand a stable global dependency on sustainable debt.

Girls need more than pads.
Thry need dignity, education, clean water, safe toilets, access to healthcare, and an end to menstrual stigma. Every girl deserves to manage her period with confidence and without barriers.🩸
#MHDay36#EndStigma#EndPeriodPoverty
While giving her opening remarks, Hon. Dr. Florence Asiimwe, an MP, appreciated @ahfugandacares and partners for the #YouthMockParliament on Menstrual Health Management, which is a national cause and dignity of a woman. She encouraged the public to engage leaders to #EndTheStigma
Menstrual health remains a fundamental aspect of
SRHR, yet it is often overlooked or under-prioritized in public health discourse, especially
among young people.
We ought to bring such conversations in open space.

Menstrual hygiene is an important issue that cuts across sectors such as education, health,
climate, & the economy:
➢ with education, many studies argue that inadequate sanitary facilities affect girls at school, missing classes during their menstruation.
