“For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them,” says the Bible, Mathew 18:20 in the New Testament.

Yes, for our rebooted multipronged tuberculosis (TB) awareness campaign, we are borrowing and using biblical wisdom. Every opportunity that we get, our gatherings, we further End TB in Uganda advocacy.

It is the reason that during all training courses, meetings, workshops, we organise at our Dr. Paul Hargrave Memorial Centre, we hold joint viewing sessions of the short video that dramatizes research findings of our empirical qualitative investigation into TB in Uganda. 

The intention for our TB-video-viewing-sessions are multipurpose: 

1. Ignite conscious awareness of widespread prevalence of TB in Uganda.
2. Insight action. At the very least, to want to inform communities of how TB is transmitted.
3. Raise TB suspicion index. Promote adoption of an attitude that encourages prompt and early TB diagnostic seeking behaviour.
4. Collect data on current TB realities at the grassroots; which data informs and sharpens our End TB in Uganda advocacy.

Our Dr. Paul Hargrave Memorial Centre Human Development Project, ongoing current, is affording us a great opportunity to ignite among hundreds of youths a conscious awareness of TB.

Youth who are participating in our courses for training community change agents in media, self-reliant participatory development, and research, we are intentionally sensitizing on TB in Uganda.

We are, in fact, excited that next month, June 2026, we are able to offer 30 university students, youth, from disadvantaged backgrounds from Northern Uganda, an opportunity, as part of their internship, to train with us as Research Change Agents.

We will endow research change agents with skills in conducting qualitative investigations. TB will be the focus topic and from a Uganda social cultural context.

We anticipate beneficiary students will utilize their new learning for personal academic achievements. And, in addition, they will utilize it in ways that further the mission of CPAR Uganda to:

Stimulate development, dissemination and widespread application of technologies suitable and adaptable to the social cultural and economic context of Uganda, in a manner that contributes towards ending TB in Uganda.

Many parts of the world did succeed in eradicating TB from their territories. No more are people in those parts of the world senselessly dying from this preventable disease. This is what we want for Uganda too.

Yes, together we can.
