Today we launch the 12th Annual State of Equal Opportunities Report! What have we learned? What must we stop doing? And what can we do better to make equality more than a promise? @EOC_UG @CSBAGUGANDA

Uganda needs markets ,and government must take the lead in securing them. Commercial diplomacy is not a luxury; it’s a necessity that deserves adequate financing. @CSBAGUGANDA @mofpedU

Nature doesn't send a strongly worded email. It sends a hurricane. Maybe we should start reading the memos.

When @EriasLukwago_ made the alarm against @KiggunduHamis stealing Nakivubo Channle, there were some busybodies who were saying he was failing development. The rains were small today but this is what we have. I knew Ham is always a scum!

With Uganda set to start school meals program, local procurement can be a game-changer. Buying food from family farmers creates stable markets, boosts rural incomes, and can boost @PDMSecretariat & powers local economies while feeding our children. @CSBAGUGANDA @MoLGUganda

Despite gains, the most vulnerable are still left behind. Only 27% of primary school children in low-income countries get school meals, compared to 80% in high-income countries. we need to do more @Educ_SportsUg @CSBAGUGANDA @GPforEducation

The state of school feeding worldwide report 2024 by @WFP says, beyond nutrition, school meals create 1,500 jobs per 100,000 children, and strengthen local farmers & food systems. Every $1 invested in school meals it returns $3–$9 in benefits: @CSBAGUGANDA @GPforEducation

Global investment in school meals now stands at US$84B annually — and 99% is financed from domestic budgets. A clear signal: governments see school feeding as a priority investment in children, education & national development. @WFPUgandaCD @CSBAGUGANDA @GPforEducation

Brazil’s Supreme Audit Institution (SAI), the Tribunal de Contas da União (TCU), ensures accountability in school meal programs primarily through a system of external control and audits. this is a key lesson for Uganda @CSBAGUGANDA @mofpedU @Educ_SportsUg @GPforEducation

In just 4 years, over 80 million more children worldwide now have access to school meals—a rare success story driven by governments. The question is: how will Uganda step up to ensure no child learns on an empty stomach? @CSBAGUGANDA @GPforEducation @Educ_SportsUg @SchoolMeals_
