Statement from The Convention Chairman

 

Greetings NUP Diaspora Delegates and friends,

 

The Washington DC NUP family is honored to be hosting the next conference in North America from August 10th to 14th 2023. I take this opportunity as Chairman of the NUP-DC 2023 Executive team, to invite you all to be part of this conference.

 

This conference will be a celebration of the hard work the NUP Diaspora and People Power movement is doing for the motherland in addition to the solidarity, commitment and support of friends worldwide.

 

Our conference venue in the Capital of the United States presents a unique opportunity to engage stakeholders that play a crucial role in the affairs of Uganda such as the Bretton Woods institutions, State Department, Congress, NGOs, investors and the Executive branch.

 

We are going to showcase the professionalism and excellence of the NUP Diaspora that brings a wealth of resources and expertise from business, politics, media, human rights, healthcare, education, foreign affairs, the arts among other talents which have made the struggle formidable and resilient.

 

Our delegates should expect to get re-energized, exposed to a wealth of knowledge and expertise as well as motivated towards the common goal of liberating Uganda from the shackles of authoritarian rule.

 

We plan to have vibrant policy debates and forums that will explore the current state of our country Uganda, the role the Diaspora can play as ambassadors of NUP and ways in which we can reshape Uganda’s economic, political and social landscape for the better.

 

We humbly request that you share the information about the conference with your members, peers, colleagues and well-wishers. Please register early for the conference or make a donation to support the team organizing the NUP-DC 2023 conference. If you have any suggestions on how best we can present the projects and initiatives in your communities please reach out to our team.

 

We look forward to hosting you in Washington DC to connect, network and celebrate with the NUP Diaspora family as we continue to play an integral role in the future of Uganda. The solutions that we advocate today will determine the future of Uganda.
