"Together, We Win Change: My Vision for Our Movement" - @juliet_namukasa , International President @Movendi_Int .
"We are the people who know the harm alcohol corporations cause. We see it in our homes, in public spaces that are unsafe for women and girls, on our roads, in young hol takes 2.6 million lives every year. From my own work in Ugandan communities I know that alcohol harm stands in the way of ending poverty and achieving development for all. And for too long, the spaces where alcohol policy is made have been dominated by alcohol corporations and their lobbyists".

President @CyrilRamaphosa of @GovernmentZA has integrated alcohol policy into a new national 90-day action plan to address gender-based violence and femicide following a series of killings.
#DYK about this?
The four-point strategy combines case recoveries, forensic backlog afety audits, and improved enforcement against non-compliant liquor outlets, recognizing that addressing alcohol use and availability is essential to protecting women and communities from violence.

Earlier this morning, we held a press conference at Kolping Hotel in Kampala, informing the masses about the upcoming 5th Uganda Alcohol Policy Conference, slated for the 25th and 26th of November 2026 @MakSPH Auditorium.
Uganda is ranked 1st in Africa and 5th globally as the tion in Africa, averaging about 12.2 litres of pure alcohol per person per year, which is nearly double the African regional average.
Alcohol has contributed to many of the mental health challenges contributing 20% of admissions in @butabika1955 and strain units across regional hospitals like, Gulu, Lira and Kabale.
Alcohol abuse is costing Uganda trillions of shillings in healthcare costs and lost productivity and social and community devastation. (@WHO , 2023)
Recognizing the severity of these public health and economic crises, we (UAPA), through the 5th Uganda Alcohol Policy Conference (#UAPC26), seeks to advance policy dialogue and collaborative action on alcohol control, bringing together stakeholders to examine existing challenges and identify practical approaches to reducing alcohol-related harm.
Professionals, academia , religious & cultural leaders, hospitals and organizations are encouraged to take part, contribute their expertise, share practical experiences, and help shape solutions that strengthen healthier and safer communities.ce

Today, our members led by the President @donaldrukanga1 took part in a closed door dialogue during the commemoration of the International Day of the Girl Child at @UNICEFUganda Offices.
The dialogue organised by joint UN Agencies featured 6 teenage mothers and survivors of GBV ic experiences and how they managed to get out of them.
For some it was rape, others it was poverty and others because the parents were not available.
Notwithstanding, they shared a ray of Hope as resilient survivors.
For example one of them who got pregnant in P7, and has a 9 year old child is now at campus after she was supported by Remnant Generation.
The Dialogue ended with recommendations from the experts and stakeholders in the room ; Government, UN Agencies and CSOs.
