24F10607-H No thanks – we can do it ourselves: How Uganda could feed and develop itself

Is Uganda poor, or is Uganda rich? According to international comparisons, poor, but in terms of its resources of plants and people, very wealthy. With its fruits, traditional vegetables and medicinal plants, Uganda could feed itself and meet many of its health needs. Two very active women partners of Discover will illustrate how, with their skills and vast experience, they are already turning this vision into reality.

Presenters:

Judith Bakirya, Managing Director, Busaino Fruits & Herbs, Jinja, Uganda, one of 10 Ugandan business people who were invited to attend the Anuga Trade Fair in Cologne, Germany in October 2023.

Rehema Namyalo, Vumbula (Discover) Masaka, Trainer in natural herbal medicine, organic farming, agroforestry and income generating projects, Masaka, Uganda.
