Today on our #FlashbackFriday A week ago at the #POATE2025, we came together to celebrate Uganda's unmatched beauty, resilience, and boundless potential as a top global destination. The energy, the ideas, the partnerships — unforgettable! The Minister of @MTWAUganda captured the spirit perfectly: #ExploreUganda

Still at #POATE2025, our team—led by our head of office, Dr. @mmubangizi15, has been in vibrant conversation with everyone from @visitrwanda_now to tech innovators, faith leaders to the Tanzania Tourism Board. One clear message: digital tourism is no longer a future idea—it’s the now.

We also showcased #VR experiences from @KeepersXR, @AirQoProject's 3D-printed gorillas and air quality tools, and @SunbirdAI's #AI powered local language technologies. Our booth was buzzing, but so were the ideas. Would you wish to collaborate with us on tourism development in Uganda, or just share ideas? Let's talk: uganda@unglobalpulse.org #ExploreUganda #DigitalTransformation #POATE2025
