In Uganda men have dominated the sports media landscape, representing approximately 75 to 85% of sports journalists, with women making up only 15 to 25%.  Aheebwa highlights that sports journalism is “traditionally seen as a male domain” in Uganda, which has limited women’s entry and growth in this field. Female reporters often cover less prominent sports and have fewer opportunities to headline major events or gain editorial leadership roles.

   According to the research, a significant number of students are unable to consistently access all required online materials or participate fully in virtual sessions due to unreliable internet and high data tariffs. One final-year student explained, “I have to wait until late at night for cheaper data bundles, but by then I am too tired to concentrate on the recorded lectures. Sometimes, I miss quizzes because the network is poor.”

Wessali encouraged students to begin putting their skills to use as early as possible instead of waiting to feel ‘ready’.
