There's no excuse for not investing to #EndChildMarriage and #TeenagePregnancies We're calling for sustainable investment to end these injustices #16DaysOfActivismAgainstGBV #NoExcuse

We are pleased to have attended the Annual General Meeting for Girls Not Brides Uganda, the national partnership to End Child Marriage.

Gender Based Violence destroys the peacefulness of families and psychologically affects both women and children. Engaging men to prevent violence can help to restore those relationships for a better future. #16days #DEFORA

Protecting Women and Girls isn't an EXPENSE. IT'S AN INVESTMENT #16daysofactivismagainstGBV

16 Days of ACTIVISM Against GBV To end violence against women, we need to challenge the attitudes that perpetuate, rationalise and normalise that violence, and deny women’s right to safety. Men are overwhelmingly the perpetrators of gender-based violence. To see violence truly

@HillaryTaylorVI You just don't understand the Ankore culture with giving cows and am sure you are not ready to know or learn...... Sorry for you! Jst hung and die with your bitterness

Was brute Muhoozi drunk while giving his disrespectful speech to the King of Busoga? How could Muhoozi tell a respected figure, like the king to personally go and receive the 10 pledged cows? This is sheer arrogance and inappropriate behavior!
