In honor of International Women’s Day, we hosted a live audience podcast episode of #DefendersUnplugged on “Give to Gain: Safe Communities for Women.” Together with Yasmine Ahmed of @FemTechLaw , Ruth Atim @gender_uganda and Gloria, we explored how law, technology, and community solidarity can help build safer spaces for women. Because safe communities don’t happen by chance, they are built intentionally. #WomensDay2026 #DigitalSafety

Thugs stole a motorcycle in front of a camera after the unsuspecting rider failed to notice the red flags. The so-called passengers pretended they had no change, waiting for other motorists to drive away so that no one would see them when they pounced on the rider @PoliceUg
