What strikes me lately is the quality of witness of the sons and daughters of Comboni as it stands out from the profiles of the confreres and con-sisters who reach the end of their lives on earth and whom I have known. What follows is the presentation of one of them, but in the background of the call of for holiness and in connection with the example of Comboni himself.

  • Uganda: Conflict Assessment Report for the Month of January 2017
    UGANDA: CONFLICT ASSESSMENT REPORT FOR THE MONTH OF JANUARY 2017 Issue Date: 6th February 2017 Disclaimer This publication was produced for review by the United State Agency for International Development (USAID) under the Supporting Access to Justice, Fostering Equity & Peace (SAFE) Program. The author’s views expressed do not necessarily reflect the views of USAID or the United States Government. National Overview Tension continues to rise in the Rwenzori sub region following the re-arrest of the King (Omusinga) Charles Wesley Mumbere of the Rwenzururu Kingdom (Obusinga Bwa Rwenzururu). He had been arrested in December 2016 on charges related to terrorism, aggravated robbery and attempted murder.1 These charges stemmed from attacks on police officers and police installations in the region in the last couple of months. King Mumbere was re-arrested just hours after Jinja High Court released him on bail. Prior to the re- arrest, one of the bail conditions was that he should not go to his Kingdom. The re-arrest of the King has not gone down well with some sections of his Kingdom. Area Members of the Parliament have condemned the re-arrest saying it was betrayal of the entire kingdom by the President of Uganda, and that the re-arrest was unlawful.2 However Police say King Mumbere was re-arrested because the latest investigations discovered other charges which he individually committed during the clashes in the region.3 The re-arrest of the King has the possibility of worsening the already precarious situation. In the last three years, more than three hundred (300) people have been killed, military installations attacked, houses, property and domestic livestock destroyed and many people injured in a conflict that is multidimensional.

  • Uganda Uganda Leather Value Chain Investment Profile Uganda
    LEATHER VALUE CHAIN INVESTMENT PROFILE UGANDA UGANDA LEATHER VALUE CHAIN INVESTMENT PROFILE UGANDA 2018 Basil Ajer AG EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR FOREWORD Information is arguably the most powerful tool available to individuals, companies and even countries to achieve their aspirations. However, on its own, information may not achieve much, unless it is used appropriately, which in turn can only be used appropriately, if packaged properly. It is indeed my honour, on behalf of Uganda Investment Authority (UIA), to endorse this well packaged profile on Uganda’s Leather Sector. The information in the profile has been put together by SITA International Trade Centre with whom UIA has forged a very fruitful relationship in the area of building the capacity of Ugandan companies; especially SMEs and Women owned companies, to increase their productivity and competitiveness in trade with India. UIA is Uganda’s investment promotion agency and works under the Ministry of Finance, Planning and Economic Development to provide investment information and facilitate investors to set up their businesses. UIA also provides aftercare services to ensure sustained investment growth. Investment opportunities in Uganda are vast; ranging from value addition of natural resources, services to hi- technology. The main opportunities are in mineral beneficiation, manufacturing, tourism, ICT and agro processing, as well the nascent oil and gas sector. The other areas are detailed in this profile. Agro processing in Uganda is considered to be a major driver of economic growth because if its viability and ability to create jobs for the majorly young population. The National Development Plan II identifies leather as one of the sectors that can play a major role to achieving the goals of job creation, income generation and alleviation of poverty by 2040.
