My experience in the above two women's NGOs as a leader exposed me to a diversity of gender issues.  The research I have carried out above  helped me to have a deeper understanding  of the status of women in Uganda and the world at large.  Currently I  am leading research on popularizing science education for girls in Uganda.

I would like women all over the world to get to know and understand the status of women in both developed and third world countries.

- To help women in the Western World know that Africa is not one big country but many diverse small units with a diversity of tribes and languages as well as culture.Therefore should be treated differently in their individual contexts.

- Contribute to current global debates

- Carry out research if called upon

- Help organise awareness seminars with the purpose of generating solutions affecting women lining in various parts of the world and under different living conditions

-  Advocate for women in general at different forums
