Thank you to @JamesCopnall and the @BBC team for hosting me. In case you missed it, here's my conversation with #TheInterviewBBC where I speak about bridging the gap between international politics and the needs of local people around the world. “I do not want the United Nations of New York, Geneva or Vienna to be an ivory tower, a diplomatic ivory tower. I want to see the UN not of power and privilege, but the UN of service and impact. That is the UN I want to see" bbc.com/audio/play/w3c… #OlaraOtunnu4UNSG #NextSG

Your Excellency @KagutaMuseveni, I respectfully submit a letter and policy brief on a Coffee Value Fund: capturing, for Uganda, the value that sits beyond the factory. The letter is attached. The details of the policy paper are in the link below. Under your leadership, Uganda has done the hard work in the garden. In 2025 the country exported 8.7 million bags and earned 2.5 billion dollars. That receipt stops at the bean. A factory is necessary. It is not the last step. The value not captured sits beyond the factory, in four places: the trading contract, the brand, the machine that locks the cup, and the exchange on which the world price is set. Green coffee enters Switzerland at about 5 dollars a kilogram and leaves, roasted, at about 26.80. On the German shelf the same coffee sells at 8.06 euros ground and 35.98 euros in capsules. A Fund that roasts 12 percent of the crop against signed contracts, makes branded instant coffee from 6 percent, runs a merchant desk and holds minority seats in Europe would add about 0.6 billion dollars a year to Uganda, and up to 0.9 billion if the brand work goes well. On a 16 million bag crop, Uganda-attributable value moves from 3.6 billion dollars to about 4.2 to 4.5 billion. The Fund would not replace the farmer, the huller or the exporter. As always, I thank your Excellency’s attention to this matter. drive.google.com/file/d/1RC8z4A…

UPDF Reiterates Uganda’s Commitment to International Peacekeeping Entebbe, Saturday 3 October, 2026 The Director Women Affairs of the Uganda Peoples’ Defence Forces (UPDF), Brig Gen Charity Bainababo, has reiterated Uganda’s commitment to supporting international peacekeeping efforts through training, technology and strengthened partnerships. She made the remarks during the closure of the 17th Women’s Outreach Course and the 12th United Nations Peacekeeping Micro-UAS Remote Pilot Course at the UN Regional Service Centre in Entebbe. Brig Gen Bainababo said Uganda’s support for peacekeeping programmes is part of the country’s broader commitment to promoting regional and global peace and security. She added that Uganda is set to host the inaugural Conference of Chiefs of Defence Forces, where the UPDF Chief of Defence Forces, Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba, and his counterparts will discuss Military Operations Other Than War. “Uganda believes in common security because we are alive to the fact that when our brothers and sisters are in trouble, so are we. These initiatives reinforce our shared commitment to peace, security and cooperation, while strengthening the preparedness of those serving in peace operations worldwide,” Brig Gen Bainababo said. She commended the officers drawn from seven missions, African Union operations and 14 member states who completed the Women’s Outreach Course, saying their achievement reflects growing efforts to enhance women’s participation in peace operations. “These women have worked hard to strengthen their technical expertise, leadership and operational readiness. Their accomplishments are significant as women continue to make essential contributions to peacekeeping,” she said. Brig Gen Bainababo urged them to translate the knowledge and skills acquired during the training into practice and remain committed to continuous learning as technology evolves. “Let the knowledge not remain on paper, on the certificate that you have acquired. Let it be seen from the way you operate, from the way you interact with your colleagues and from the way you interact with technology. Be a student forever, because this technology that you have learnt here keeps evolving,” she said. She also commended the graduates of the Micro-UAS Remote Pilot Course, saying their specialised skills would contribute to safer and more effective peacekeeping by enhancing situational awareness and promoting the responsible use of technology. “In each one of you, a candle has been lit. Go hold it out for all to see. We can only get the value of this course through your actions, through your application of the skills,” she said. The Ambassador of France to Uganda, H.E. Virginie Leroy, reaffirmed France’s commitment to supporting United Nations peacekeeping operations through training, technology and stronger international partnerships. She said international partnerships are the cornerstone of sustainable peacekeeping and noted that the partnership supporting the training had recently been renewed until 2029, with cooperation expanding to areas including Information and Communication Technology and advanced aircraft systems training. Ambassador Leroy highlighted gender inclusion and innovation as key priorities for modern peacekeeping. “The Women’s Outreach Course has enabled women worldwide to believe in themselves, to gain confidence, strengthen their technical and leadership skills and build networks as they prepare for future roles in peace operations,” she said. She commended the Government of Uganda for its continued support to UN training activities. On the Micro-UAS training, Ambassador Leroy said remotely piloted aircraft are increasingly supporting peacekeeping operations by enhancing understanding of operational environments, improving situational awareness, strengthening mission effectiveness and reducing casualties.
