Comment on this project

The Idea:

What will change in the world because this Project happens?

This project will help highlight a balanced picture of events in Uganda and Africa. The world is rapidly globalizing and unfortunately Africa's momentum in the convergence aspects is slow. The process of drafting young people into responsible community builders is still snail-paced. Using technology, I believe I can tell the Ugandan and Africa story to the world in my own way. Yes, there is the traditional media but technology has provided me with tools to play my role in a quick, low-cost and effective way.

Uganda Economic Intelligence Unit is a media platform that projects the view of a Uganda citizen, a young man who at the age of 9 lost his parents due to civil strife. A young man who lost his childhood to a political insurection by crafting into the military thus dropping out of school in 1981. A young man who went back-to-school 5 years later(1987) and regained his freedom and today wants to tell the story based on his historical perspective.

Uganda Intelligence Unit(UIU) is a solution based media blog. It discusses public policy,IT solutions to common enterprise development, economic espionage, tourism, natural and environmental resource management in Uganda and Africa.

It is the African story of optism.
