Have you read Mind Over Murder? If you haven't, better check with us. We already have it in our library. It is a compelling and deeply reflective novel that brilliantly weaves crime, conscience, and the human capacity for transformation. What stands out most is how Jake and Annabel go beyond the surface of violence and investigation to explore the psychology of peace, showing that even in moments of moral conflict, empathy and self-awareness can change the course of events. The narrative offers a rare blend of suspense and emotional depth, reminding readers that reconciliation begins in the mind. It’s not just a story about murder, it’s a story about healing, forgiveness, and the possibility of peace within and around us. It's A MUST READ TRUST ME

Today, the Rwenzori Media Development Foundation (RMDF) held a follow-up Zoom meeting with journalists who were trained in Environmental and Climate Change Reporting and Programming under the UNESCO–IPDC supported project.

It was inspiring to hear how journalists are applying the skills and knowledge gained from the training. Participants shared inspiring stories of how they have reported on issues such as deforestation, pollution, waste management, and community climate adaptation across the Rwenzori region.

Together, we reflected on progress made, challenges faced, and the need for continued collaboration in using the media as a tool for environmental protection and climate action.

Guided by Dr. Herbert Mugerwa, students explored various departments and engaged directly with doctors and medical practitioners to gain insights into health communication and public health reporting.

A big thank you to the hospital team for the warm welcome and knowledge shared. This experience is shaping the next generation of health reporters!
