At the 12th @TanaForum in Bahir Dar, Ethiopia. A powerful takeaway from Hon. @KiryowaKk (Uganda's Minister of Defense) during today's high-level panel: "Development must lead to individual wealth creation, not just infrastructure."
True continental peace and sovereignty are deeply tied to our economic independence. We must prioritize local value addition, keep Africa's resources within our borders, and stop the value flight of raw exports. Brilliant insights on building an integrated continental market that works for our citizens.

The diaspora also provides an important platform for promoting Uganda's image, culture, tourism, trade, investment opportunities, and national interests.
The Embassy has recognized a need for a platform that brings the Ugandan community together to strengthen relationships, exchange ideas, identify opportunities, celebrate Ugandan identity, and explore practical ways in which the diaspora can contribute to Uganda's development. #InvestInUganda #UgandaEthiopia #ECD #VisitUganda #UgandaAt64
