A stronger @UNAIDS must deliver for countries and communities: funded community leadership, human rights and safe access to care.
My article reflects on this next chapter, and the programme countries helping sustain UNAIDS.

Today ,26 October 2026 marks Intersex Awareness Day. Between 0.05% and 1.7% of the world’s population is intersex, a number some people say is comparable to the world’s population that has red hair(yess!)
Intersex is an umbrella term used to describe a range of variations that can affect genitals, gonads, hormones, chromosomes, or reproductive organs. There are at least 40 known intersex variations.
To all Intersex folks, ViVa!! this #Intersexawarenessday

Gender-affirming care is not elective. It is primary healthcare, and in Uganda, it does not exist. Not in the public sector. Not even in the private sector. The gap forces people to self-medicate with unregulated products, unsupervised and at serious risk.
This episode makes the clinical case, the human rights case, and the policy case. It is the most direct conversation Turn the Tables has about what a functioning health system for trans people in Uganda must look like — and how far we are from building one.

Today, We celebrate the strength, resilience, and invaluable contributions of rural women farmers who feed our communities, nurture the land, and protect Mother Nature.
Rural women are at the heart of sustainable agriculture, food security, and climate resilience, yet their contributions often go unrecognized. It’s time to champion their leadership, promote gender equality, and ensure they have access to the resources, opportunities, and support they need and deserve.
Let’s empower rural women, so we can nurture communities and protect our planet.

19 facilities mapped. A clearer picture of progress and the work still ahead.
The TNU mapping report brings together information on HIV care, prevention, STI management, mental health, GBV response, legal protection and other essential services for transgender and gender-diverse communities.
These findings can support better planning, stronger referrals and more accountable services.
Read the findings and join us in advocating for healthcare that is safe, respectful and accessible to everyone.

Trans People Are a Risk to Children
This is the claim designed to shut down every other conversation. It has no credible evidence behind it — and it causes serious harm to the trans people it targets and the children it claims to protect.
We bring data, child welfare expertise, and the lived experience of trans parents and educators to the table.

They said trans, intersex and gender-diverse people came from somewhere else. History says otherwise.

We spent some time with our member organisation, Tranz Network Uganda, while in Kampala, which offered a sobering look into what organising under pressure really means.
For over a decade, this community-led initiative has created access to care while navigating increasing scrutiny from state authorities, heavy taxation, and shrinking funding.
Our conversation centred on sustainability, safety, and the importance of remaining visible within regional spaces despite hostile environments.

Nous avons passé quelque temps avec notre organisation membre, Tranz Network Uganda, lors de notre séjour à Kampala, ce qui nous a permis de mieux comprendre ce que signifie réellement s'organiser sous pression.
Depuis plus d'une décennie, cette initiative communautaire a permis d'améliorer l'accès aux soins tout en faisant face à une surveillance accrue des autorités publiques, à une fiscalité lourde et à une diminution des financements.
Notre conversation a porté sur la durabilité, la sécurité et l'importance de rester visible au sein des espaces régionaux malgré un environnement hostile.

Por mais de uma década, esta iniciativa liderada pela comunidade criou acesso a cuidados de saúde, ao mesmo tempo que lidava com o crescente escrutínio das autoridades estatais, a pesada tributação e a redução do financiamento.
