Published

on

At the 6th National Conference on Communications opened by the Minister of ICT and National Guidance, Hon. Judith Nabakooba, I have urged the Minister and the Executive Director (ED) of Uganda Communications Commission (UCC), Eng. Irene Kaggwa Sewankambo to establish an ICT Research Fund to help improve the quality of ICTs in Uganda. Makerere would be a proud partner in this initiative.

The ED and Minister have welcomed the proposal and I thank them.

This afternoon I have launched the Makerere University Grants Administration Professionals (MakGAP) after a four-day intensive training conducted by experts from Makerere University and Northwestern University, USA. With a portfolio of more than 100 new grants registered every month, Makerere University needs to have a critical mass of grants administration professionals to manage this huge research grants portfolio. I thank the Grants Administration and Management Unit (GAMSU), led by Prof. Sylvia Tamusuza Nakimera Nnanyonga for conducting the training.

The late former Vice Chancellor 2004 to 2009 Prof. Luboobi Livingstone.

I have received with deep sadness the news of the passing of Professor Livingstone Luboobi, former Vice Chancellor of Makerere University. A distinguished Professor of Mathematics, Professor Luboobi served as Vice Chancellor from 2004 to 2009, guiding the university through a critical period of transformation and growth. His contributions to academia and leadership at Makerere will be remembered with great respect and admiration. May his soul rest in eternal peace.
