Create Your Path: Each day, consider how you can contribute to innovation, whether through new ideas at work, optimizing processes, or pursuing creative solutions. Remember, the future isn't something you enter; it's something you create.

One year down! Today we celebrated MUST-Pedc’s 1st anniversary with some well-deserved cake cutting. Special thanks to Dr. Musiita Benjamin for his wonderful leadership in getting us here. Here’s to many more milestones ahead! #PedcAnniversary #OneYearStrong @MbararaUST

MUST leadership, led by Vice Chancellor @PbyakikaPauline , today held a strategic engagement with the Permanent Secretary/Secretary to the Treasury, Dr. Ramathan Ggoobi @rggoobi , at the Ministry of Finance, Planning and Economic Development in Kampala, under the theme "Positioning MUST as a Leading University in Research, Innovation and Commercialization."

The PSST pledged support for MUST research, urging that scientists be empowered to deliver real impact in STI and that university research stay aligned with the national research agenda.

@DouglasLwangaUg @EngJonard The entrepreneurial index vs the innovation index, signals the reality that our entrepreneurship is out of necessity/survival not new ideas per se. That's not a classroom problem, it's a bad economy.

@qataharraymond @qataharraymond are you saying we deserve to be in a higher income group because we are fewer?! These metrics are mere indicators of underlying phenomena. If we our shift to a higher income division is only on account of popln revision, then we would be vulnerable in there

How effectively are local governments in Eastern Uganda collecting their own revenues? A new data collection report from the MUST Policy and Economic Data Centre (MUST-PEDC) provides the most comprehensive answer yet. Covering 46 local government entities, 3 cities, and 10 municipalities across six sub-regions, the report analyses Non-Tax Revenue (NTR) performance over five financial years, from FY 2020/21 to FY 2024/25.

@YusufSerunkuma @BakerbatteLule @BakerbatteLule needs to reevaluate his philosophy. The unintended underlying assumption of his argument is that one man/person must lead such a liberation.

@SpireJim 😂The moment I saw your happy post about the world giraffe day, I instinctively knew what was coming next😂

@NadaAndersen @mofpedU It's sad to see government entities doing CSR, because then, what's the role of government?

@TheLongFormRw @pamadongo Ability to write is not merely a market skill, it is a life skill that could even be a survival skill and will remain so. It's good for students to be tech-savy, but arguing that they shouldn't teach them to write because they will not need it, is being over ambitious

@SsemujjuIN @Samwyri You're most welcome!

@cpmayiga @Vote_BobiWine It's true.
The saddening thing is that this is in a country with life expectancy of 68 years, meaning people live more than half a lifetime struggling to breakthrough; and if/when they do, they would be no more, in just about 15years. It's a heavily extractive economy we run.
