We are advocating for a simplified Nutrient Profiling Model framework that sets clear, evidence-based thresholds for front-of-pack warning labels.

This policy tool is to enhance the visibility of nutritional information, for consumers to easily identify products high in sugar, salt, or fat.

Food labels should be straightforward and comprehensible to all consumers—regardless of age, education, or background. We therefore call upon the Ministry of Health to urgently adopt and implement a Nutrient Profiling Model

It's easy to be swayed by attractive packaging, but taking a moment to read the nutrition labels can make a significant difference in our health choices. Let's advocate for clearer, front-of-pack labels to help everyone make informed decisions.

Despite being banned within the European Union due to their serious health and environmental hazards, pesticides such as Mancozeb, Paraquat, and Carbofuran continue to be legally exported to countries like Uganda.

Ban Hazardous pesticides in Uganda.

🚨 Today, we formally notified the European Union of our intent to take legal action if it continues exporting pesticides banned in Europe to countries like Uganda.

We stand with global movements demanding an end to this deadly double standard.

Governments and health organizations use warning labels to reduce the consumption of unhealthy foods. For instance, front-of-pack labels indicating high sugar or fat content help curb obesity and heart disease rates.
Adopt a healthy and balanced Diet: Eat a diverse diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, and nuts while limiting foods high in salt, sugar, and unhealthy fats (saturated and trans fats).
Please adopt and pass the evidence based Nutrient Profiling Model
