@IrampayeDan That’s my nephew! Stepping up under pressure and delivering the winning penalty kick for Kobs! I see you, Shafik—the confidence, composure, and energy are massive. Keep pushing; am proud of you! 🎯🏉🔥💪🏾

“What have you done for your country?”

Some of us gave our youth.
Some of us gave our bodies.
I gave mine to rugby 🏉🇺🇬

And it gave me everything back — discipline, identity, and purpose.

@MHSwahn Four years of listening, learning, and empowering voices that deserve to be heard. Projects like TOPOWA show how research can be both rigorous and deeply human. Thank you to everyone involved for continuing to champion the well-being and resilience of young women in Kampala.

@MHSwahn So proud of you, Monica ❤️ Keep shining and leading with purpose. Love seeing you pour into public health—and still make time for that resilience walk in nature.

[Chandia CK @ChandiaCK]

@MHSwahn @soph_vcu Love the momentum. Wishing you a strong semester of bold ideas, meaningful partnerships, and measurable impact. 🙌🏿

@MHSwahn @uydel_2019 Love this: “Am I walking with the community?” That’s the real test of relevance. Tambula nange 🙏🏿🇺🇬 #CommunityResearch

@MHSwahn Powerful full-circle moment—thank you for continuing to translate public health evidence into real-world action for youth and young women in Uganda. Safe journey and looking forward to the TOPOWA updates. 🙏🏿🇺🇬

[Chandia CK @ChandiaCK]

@MHSwahn @uydel_2019 @soph_vcu Congratulations on a strong briefing in Kampala. Important mental health findings—thank you for translating research into impact for young women. 🙏🏿🇺🇬

[Chandia CK @ChandiaCK]

@CapitalFMUganda This is heartbreaking: 74% is not a statistic we can ignore. Young women in Kampala’s slums are carrying an invisible crisis—depression, anxiety, and suicidality. We need urgent, accessible mental health support now.

[Chandia CK @ChandiaCK]

@MHSwahn Thank you for centering the voices of young women in Kampala. The stories + lessons here matter. Proud of what’s being built 🙏🏿🇺🇬

[Chandia CK @ChandiaCK]

@MHSwahn @uydel_2019 @Annanabulya @soph_vcu Great to see the site check-ins underway. Looking forward to the upcoming project updates and findings from Banda and the other study sites. 🙏🏿🇺🇬

[Chandia CK @ChandiaCK]

@MHSwahn Love this! 🌍💬 It’s such a gift to work in spaces where languages, cultures, and ideas flow together. Luganda in the office sounds like home away from home! 🇺🇬👏
