🎬✨ This morning we were blessed to have Irene Kulabako, a true OG in the film industry. She shared her creative and filmmaking journey with the participants.

This week, #IamAPHRC’s INSPIRE 2.0 Team, led by @IBusulwa and @MDMwanga was in Ouagadougou and Nanoro, Burkina Faso, engaging with four Health and Demographic Surveillance Systems (HDSS) sites: Ouagadougou, Nanoro, Nouna, and Kaya. The team introduced A-Search, an AI-powered platform set to revolutionize African health research. It's designed to: ✅Streamline processes ✅Enhance data quality ✅Unlock advanced analytics This initiative reinforces APHRC's commitment to strengthening research capacity on the continent through the responsible use of AI. Our goal is to empower African researchers with smarter tools for data-driven decisions and better health outcomes. #AI #HealthResearch #WeAreAfrica #APHRC #INSPIRE2.0 #Innovation

At today’s Art of Pitching session, Irene Kulabako reminded Ugandan creatives that a great pitch is your story before the story. Start small. Be real. Practice a lot. Partner smart. #UFF2025 | #LocalStoriesGlobalImpact

Key takeaways from Irene Kulabako: ✅ Start with short films ✅ Don’t fake it be authentic ✅ Work with experienced people ✅ Prepare for tough questions Your pitch could be the start of your next big break. #UFF2025 | #LocalStoriesGlobalImpact
