Youth as catalysts for change in Uganda’s political system

On 5 July 2023, NIMD Uganda held the second session of the Uganda Democracy Academy fellowship. The Fellowship is a six month programme that aims to empower young individuals and enhance their leadership skills, political knowledge, and civic engagement. The participants are from political parties and various youth leagues in the country.

The theme of the second Fellowship was: History of Political Parties in Uganda: Are Political Parties a Vehicle for National Development and Transformation?

One of the participants is Rogers Tulyahabwe. He is a member of the European Union Delegation to Uganda’s first Youth Sounding Board. We asked Rogers to share his experiences and main take ways with us.
