Can a carbon project succeed if the farmers involved do not understand its value?

Bashir, founder of Stack Carbon, discusses the use of crushed rocks on agricultural land as part of an enhanced rock weathering approach to carbon removal. Beyond the science, our conversation explores how to engage smallholder farmers through the issues they already understand, soil health, changing weather, crop yields and profitability.

An important discussion about translating complex climate technologies into practical agricultural opportunities.

Could what we wear inspire someone to visit Uganda?

We meet Katende Godfrey from IGC Fashion to discuss how Ugandan fashion and cultural heritage can become part of the tourism experience.

Our conversation explores the reinvention of barkcloth, the growing appeal of African design and the opportunities for collaboration between fashion creatives and tourism operators.

Fashion doesn't just tell people what we wear. It can tell them who we are, where we come from and why our culture is worth experiencing.

Carbon markets are often discussed through emissions, credits and financing. But what do those numbers mean for an ordinary Ugandan?

Howard Kiwon of Mandulis Energy brings the energy transition into everyday life, from reliable electricity that allows children to study to cleaner cooking and electric motorcycles that could reduce operating costs for boda boda riders.

We explore how carbon finance can support practical energy solutions and why the success of climate investment should ultimately be measured in better livelihoods, greater opportunity and improved quality of life.

What changes when government stops simply opening industry events and starts participating in the difficult conversations?

Peter Benhur Nyeko of Mandulis Energy reflects on the growing engagement of ministers, commissioners, directors and technical officers at the East Africa Carbon Markets Forum 2026.

We discuss why Uganda’s emerging carbon market needs stronger cooperation between regulators, developers, investors and communities, and why young people, Members of Parliament and local communities must have a greater voice in shaping its future.

An episode about moving from representation to meaningful participation.

Everyone agrees that Uganda’s carbon market needs collaboration. But what does meaningful collaboration actually look like?

At the East Africa Carbon Markets Forum 2026, Mark Mutaahi, Co-founder and CEO of Carbon Access Lab, explains why government, investors, banks and project developers can share the same ambition yet struggle to move together.

Using the analogy of passengers travelling in different carriages of the same train, he explores how understanding each stakeholder’s role, readiness and priorities can help turn conversations into viable partnerships.

A conversation about connecting the right people to move Uganda’s carbon projects forward.

What if Uganda's cultural heritage could become one of its most exciting tourism experiences?

In the first episode of On Uganda, in the Field, we speak with Rasheeda Nalumoso of Live Traces Producing about fashion, barkcloth and the opportunities within Uganda's creative economy.

We explore how traditional materials can inspire contemporary fashion, how creative experiences can become tourism products and why partnerships between designers and tourism operators matter.

Uganda has more to offer than sightseeing.

Sometimes, the experience is in what we create, wear and learn.
