Welcome to Her Story Uganda
Journalism Through The Gender Lens

Her Story Uganda is a non-for-profit Newsroom that advocates for gender equity, equal representation of women in the media and women empowerment.

It creates innovative content for development while advocating for inclusion, equity and diversity by providing a safe environment for women to share their plight and experiences to motivate others without expecting judgments.

We use storytelling to instill empowering and inspiring messages to women and girls.

Our vision as an agent of change is to see more women and girls come out to issues that matter to them the most and freely express without fear of prejudice and take this as a cornerstone to raising their self-esteem

About Her Story
