Today, during the ongoing Community Health Extension Workers (CHEWs) Training in Otuke District, we focused on “Health Promotion and Education”.
It was a very engaging and fruitful session that creatively concluded with a song about health promotion.
Through the song, participants shared a powerful message that Health Promotion and Education are key to living a better life, and that positive behavior change leads to healthier communities and improved well-being.

A total of 240 smartphones (tablets) were handed over to Village Health Teams (VHTs) in Nabilatuk District, procured with support from Malaria Consortium.
This initiative is part of ongoing efforts to strengthen timely and efficient weekly reporting by community-based health workers. As part of the rollout, the Ministry of Health and Malaria Consortium conducted training for district and sub-county leaders, 14 personnel from seven health facilities, and one supervisor from each facility to ensure effective utilization of the devices.
Speaking at the event, Nanyunja Jackline from the Ministry of Health commended the initiative, noting that it will significantly ease reporting processes and enhance the availability of timely and accurate data. She also applauded Malaria Consortium for embracing and supporting digital innovation, highlighting that the system will reduce paperwork and workload, while enabling seamless integration with the District Health Information System (DHIS).
Since 2021, Malaria Consortium has been supporting the implementing Seasonal Malaria Chemoprevention and has played a pivotal role in supporting decentralized health systems not only in Nabilatuk District but also across eight other districts in the Karamoja sub-region.
With the Electronic Community Health Information System(eCHIS), Health facilities are submitting weekly reports (HMIS Form 033B) to the District Biostatistician, who compiles and forwards them to the Ministry of Health. These reports are critical in informing stakeholders about disease trends and strengthening public health surveillance.

What do you mean you are no longer letting people enter the Kawempe offices to receive IDs claiming you are closed for the day...
That's not fair..

Re-introduction to New Followers!!!
Hi, My name is Faith Mairah, a purpose-driven leader, SRHR and gender advocate, and youth development strategist passionate about transforming policy into people-centred progress across Africa and beyond.
With a foundation in public health, gender equality, and program management, I’ve led youth-serving initiatives across East & Southern Africa, mobilized over $500,000 for impact projects, and steered bold transitions like the SRHR Alliance Uganda’s independence and YALI Uganda’s sustainable structures, policies, and strategic direction. As Chairperson of YALI Uganda (2023–2025), I championed alumni empowerment through resource mobilization, MoUs with national institutions, and innovative platforms like YALICOS and the YALI Uganda Leadership Academy.
From building organizational systems to launching youth- & women-led startups, my work sits at the intersection of strategy, advocacy, and sustainable development. I bring a decade of experience in program management, research, policy, executive leadership, and systems thinking, all anchored in youth voice and gender justice.
Currently seeking remote or hybrid roles in SRHR, youth programming and engagement, policy advocacy, or research across Africa and globally. Let’s connect if you’re looking for a dynamic, results-orientated leader with passion, hustle, and vision.

BACK ONLINE TO INSPIRE, COLLABORATE AND IMPACT!!!
After 15 months of intentional silence on here because I chose to be fully present where it mattered most: in communities, boardrooms, classrooms, and quiet moments of reflection while serving YALI. I return to this digital space renewed, recharged, and ready to connect, share, inspire, and collaborate.
During this time, I’ve:
•Led and co-created programs/campaigns empowering youth and women across East and Southern Africa.
•Enabled the transition young initiatives into sustainable, independent organizations through my leadership.
•Conducted risk management trainings, and policy dialogues to strengthen systems.
•Celebrated wins, learned from setbacks. Grew in silence (crazy transitions) etc
In a world of fast scrolls and short attention spans, I still believe in thoughtful leadership, meaningful youth engagement, SRHR & Gender justice, and impact that lasts.
Let’s keep building. Let’s keep rising.
