Ms. Namwembe has a social scientist background which has enabled her to work with different people from diverse walks of life. Her past and present connections with interfaith and ecumenical movements worldwide have given her the contacts to promote URI work within her region. She has been successful in leading several national and international events that motivate people to act on issues of concern. She has also been able to identify talent within Uganda and is now making contacts within the sub-region; this continues to make the URI’s impact in the area to grow.
