The biggest challenge we are facing is looking at the energy transition as an omnibus where everyone must move together. We are at different economic standings and energy transition policies ought to reflect that. - @JTumwesigye at @epuganda#EP2024
Kudos to @PAU_Uganda for sticking to their guns & insisting that biodiversity is protected from oil risks. @TotalEnergiesUG should have never been allowed to drill for oil in Murchison Falls NP. @KagutaMuseveni should side with PAU & not allow another drilling rig in the park.
We partnered with Buliisa District Local Government to commemorate International Women's Day right in the heart of the district. The partnership provided Buliisa District residents with an opportunity to engage in dialogue with @TotalEnergiesUG, advocating for the outsourcing of locally produced goods and services. This ensures that host communities, especially women involved in the production of various goods, can benefit from the market opportunities brought by the sector.
