Makerere University School of Public Health, in partnership with the Karolinska Institute in Sweden and Tree Adoption Uganda, and with funding from the Wellcome Trust, has launched the WIN-WIN project (Win-Win in the Wetlands for Climate). The project aims to assess the climate, health, social, and economic impacts of wetland restoration in urban Uganda and to develop and evaluate evidence-based conservation interventions, with a focus on how wetlands affect the health of surrounding communities, including diseases such as bilharzia and malaria.

The year opens with optimism and a quiet truth: time is no longer generous. The path to 2030 is shorter, the expectations higher, and the work more urgent.
We step into 2026 focused and in motion, advancing sustainable health not by intention, but by action.

So colleagues @faryus88 @MugenyiNathans @yangaza209 et al, senior @CharlesBatte while at the #MLIat10 conference of @Lung_Institute says AI CAN NOT BE A CO AUTHOR.
However, @rkalyes1 has confimed that it's the future.

Even the last truly public open space in Entebbe is about to be hived off to a Chinese entity. When our neighbors have Nyandungu, Karura, Nairobi Arboretum etc, we are giving away more public spaces.

The environment's beauty is one that is unmatched! Nothing compares to the lush green, the chirping of the birds, how beautiful our ecosystem is! Just as lovely as it looks, it is our duty to guard it jealousy-with our all.
What are you doing to protect the environment?
