ποΈ Our #MediaFellowshipUg radio week training sessions give our #nextgenjournalists more than a radio show.
It gives them a voice & the skills to back it up
When young people learn how to conduct a powerful interview, they learn how to listen deeply & ask questions that matter.
For our #nextgenjournalists, this #MediaFellowshipUg Radio Week offered an opportunity to refine their technique, revisit craft, and engage with participatory radio approaches that are reshaping how radio connects with audiences in different societies.
Under our radio training week of the 2026 #MediaFellowshipUg, these #nextgenjournalists aren't just learning how to use a microphone.
They're learning how to create content that transforms lives in their society whilst challenging any negative stereotypes about our continent.
This #MediaFellowshipUG Radio week, our #nextgenjournalists are learning how to produce, present, and speak POWER into the airwaves.
πΈ Behind every great story is a great camera and this #MediaFellowshipUg week, our #nextgenjournalists got up close with @Sony's cutting-edge mirrorless technology.
This hands-on #MediaFellowshipUg session equipped the #nextgenjournalists with the technical & editorial skills they need to thrive in today's media landscape .
The Fellowship program is partnership with @EUinUG, @dw_akademie, @KasUganda, @SegalFoundation & @ElevatePrize .
It's been an interesting week, being pushed out of my comfort zone to share my production and visual storytelling skills with the MCI Fellowship Class of 2026.
As I always say, a candle loses nothing by lighting a candle.

The conversations were real.
And the way our #nextgenjournalists see storytelling? Completely shifted.
Because when you understand systems, you don't just report the fire, you follow the smoke all the way back to its source.
What if your story could change a system not just report on it?
That's exactly what our #nextgenjournalists explored during the Systems Thinking session by @dw_akademie's Jonathan Tusubira.
In an era of misinformation & shrinking civic space, data-driven journalism is more critical than ever.
Equipping #nextgenjournalists with these skills is an investment in democracy itself.
This #MediaFellowshipUg week was in partnership with the @EUinUG and @dw_akademie.
π Data tells the story.
At the #MediaFellowshipUg, our #nextgenjournalists learnt how to find it, read it, and hold power accountable.
Their stories are a testament to what happens when #nextgenjournalists are given the space, mentorship, support, and training to grow.
This #MediaFellowshipUg week is in partnership with @EUinUG and @dw_akademie.
@kasyate's #MediaFellowshipUg session on Changing African Narratives on How Africa Is Seen and Told challenged our #nextgenjournalists on how to frame African stories, source them better, and reminded them of the responsibility that comes with being journalists.
Every great journalist started somewhere. Our #nextgenjournalists started here.
Watch our #MediaFellowshipUG cohort go from workshop to live broadcast.
This year's program is in partnership with @EUinUG, @dw_akademie, @KasUganda, @segalfoundation & @ElevatePrize .
ποΈ Behind the camera, building the future.
Our #MediaFellowshipUG mornings just got a whole lot brighter with the different morning breakfast shows as they bring you the news that matters.
