Digital Woman Uganda Wins Nelson Mandela–Graça Machel Innovation Award in Bangkok Read Post »
When our work first began, it was grounded in a simple but powerful belief: everyone deserves access to safety, dignity, and information — no matter where they live or who they are. That belief led to the birth of Digital Woman Uganda, a grassroots initiative rooted in the realities of rural Uganda, fueled by civic tech, and committed to transforming how underserved communities—especially women—access life-saving information.
This month, that belief carried us across continents to Bangkok, where we were honored with the Nelson Mandela – Graça Machel Innovation Award, presented by CIVICUS at the Global Solutions Lab and Innovation Convene. Standing among inspiring changemakers from every corner of the world, it was more than just a moment of celebration—it was a reminder of what’s possible when purpose meets persistence.
