Uganda's human rights crisis
Published 4 months, 1 week ago
Description
On Human Rights Day, Uganda is in the spotlight for all the wrong reasons. New laws criminalize identifying with the LGBTQ+, activists are tracked, and journalists are silenced — long before the January 2026 elections. Eddy Micah Jr. speaks with Dr. Sarah Bireete and DW's Frank Yiga in Kampala about shrinking civic space, silenced dissent, and the fear shaping daily life.
