On April 16, 2026, a powerful milestone for collaborative politics unfolded in Eastern Uganda. The newly elected executive members of the Interparty Women's Platform (IWOP) Teso sub-region convened to map out the implementation of their first strategic action plan.

In May 2025, WDN-U alongside WDN Global rolled out targeted capacity-building programs for 20 aspiring and incumbent female candidates in Arua City and Koboko District.

On December 10, the global community marks the close of the #16DaysOfActivism. This date is not chosen by chance; it coincides with International Human Rights Day.

Women leaders from 10 political parties convened in Soroti to review key policy priorities, strengthen their understanding of national and party manifestos, and identify the most pressing issues affecting women in the Teso sub-region ahead of the 2026–2031 election cycle.

As the world marks the #16DaysOfActivism under the theme of ending technology-facilitated violence, digital safety has never been more critical. Digital spaces should empower women, not expose them to abuse, deceit, or manipulation.
