We believe innovation and entrepreneurship is the engine of sustainable food systems. The future of our #AgrifoodSystems depends on an integrated approach, one that strategically links gender inclusion, climate action, digital innovation, and market access to create impact.

On this #WorldFoodDay, we celebrate the farmers, innovators, and partners leading Africa’s food transformation. In partnership with the @WFP,  we are equipping smallholder farmers with innovative tools to adopt climate-smart farming and access thriving markets. #FoodHeros

By supporting private sector innovators like #SistemaBioLimited, @TulimaSolarUg, and @Agro&More, we are creating sustainable schools that stimulate demand for local produce, while empowering farmers with better access to inputs, extension services, and markets to meet that demand

What if school meals did more than just feed? Together with @WFP, we are integrating #CleanCooking solutions into school feeding programs in Karamoja to reduce environmental impact while improving efficiency.

In Uganda, 2 in 3 people can't raise $30 in a medical emergency. @NakittoVictoria, the #Futuremaker behind @SaylKare is changing that with a health financing that lets patients access care without upfront costs & pay in interest-free installments while hospitals get paid on time.

As the #NationalEmobilityExpo unfolds, financing remains a critical component to unlocking the sector, turning prototypes into market-ready solutions, and positioning Uganda as a leader in Africa’s sustainable mobility future. #neme2025

Like any sector prone to risk, Allan Mafabi, CEO at @BritamUganda, emphasized the importance of de-risking investments in the nascent e-mobility ecosystem. He said, “We are happy to work with all innovators & the supply chain ecosystem to insure and de-risk. #neme2025

Joseph Muvuwala, ED at @NPA_UG emphasized the role of #emobility to achieving the country tenfold growth agenda. He said, its crucial that we maintain macroeconomic stability, build investor confidence & reform policies such as tax exemptions and licensing regimes. #neme2025

In a panel session titled “Financing the Growth of the National E-Mobility Ecosystem,” experts from finance, policy, and innovation laid bare the multi-faceted approach required to unlock the capital needed to drive Uganda toward a sustainable transportation future. #neme2025

The #neme2025 has opened under the theme “Power Innovation, Accelerating Industrialization & Shaping Africa’s Green Future.” The expo highlights Uganda’s e-mobility transition, promoting sustainable transport & fostering partnerships for infrastructure & supply chain resilience
