🇺🇬🌍 Earlier today, members of the African Diplomatic Corps resident in Uganda received a comprehensive briefing from the @MinofHealthUG delegation led by Permanent Secretary @DianaAtwine on Uganda’s preparedness and response to communicable disease outbreaks. “Uganda's history in communicable disease management is well-known and we shall not shy away from our capabilities,” @DianaAtwine, emphasized, reaffirming the country's robust surveillance, containment and response systems. #UgandaHealthSecurity #AfricanDiplomaticCorps #HealthDiplomacy

I met with the World Health Organization Director-General, Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, who called on me at State House Entebbe. We discussed the Ebola outbreak in the region and the measures needed to strengthen prevention and response efforts. I stressed the importance of community awareness, early detection, and cross-border collaboration. Uganda has experience in mobilizing communities to confront public health challenges, as we did during the fight against HIV/AIDS. Through science, leadership, and cooperation with partners such as WHO, we can continue to protect our people and strengthen regional health security.

The journey then continued from conservation to culture at the sacred Kasubi Tombs in Kampala the spiritual resting place of Buganda Kings and one of Africa’s most treasured UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Built with wood, reed, thatch, and traditional craftsmanship, Kasubi remains more than a historical site; it is a living symbol of identity, spirituality, continuity, and the enduring legacy of the Buganda Kingdom. #POATE2026 #ExploreUganda #VisitUganda #PearlOfAfrica #UgandatoUK

On Ngamba Island, conservation lives in harmony with nature, Powered through eco-friendly practices including solar energy, rainwater harvesting, and sustainable waste management, the sanctuary offered the UK delegation a rare opportunity to witness Uganda’s leadership in responsible tourism and wildlife rehabilitation.

I was glad to launch the 10th Pearl of Africa Tourism Expo at Munyonyo today. Uganda remains one of the most unique tourism destinations because of our favourable climate, rich culture, peace and natural beauty. Regarding Ebola, there is no cause for alarm. We are applying targeted measures and continuing to work scientifically to keep people safe while keeping our economy open. As our economy grows towards upper-middle-income status, we shall also improve the tourism experience, including friendlier visa arrangements to attract more visitors. I therefore welcome the world to come and explore Uganda, the Pearl of Africa.
