We are at Mpumudde Health Centre IV in Jinja, getting essential medical services closer to the community while advancing an equally important mission: empowering people with the knowledge they need to make informed decisions about insurance.
I had the privilege of engaging directly with community members, listening to their concerns, answering questions and helping them appreciate how insurance can protect their families, livelihoods and hard-earned savings against unforeseen risks.
For me, the greatest value of such engagements lies in the opportunity to connect with the very people we exist to serve. These conversations help us understand the barriers to insurance uptake, address misconceptions and build the confidence needed for more Ugandans to embrace insurance.

When your policy expires, do not be tempted to think the uncertainty has equally expired. You can only get insurance benefits if your insurance policy is still active.

When a risk you insured against occurs, you do not have to face the financial loss alone. Your responsibility is to notify your insurer promptly, provide the required information and supporting evidence and initiate the claims process in accordance with your policy.
That is the purpose of insurance: to help you recover from insured losses and regain your footing when unforeseen events disrupt your plans.

Agricultural insurance alongside sound financial planning, effective farm management and appropriate employee protection can help enterprises withstand shocks, recover from insured losses and remain productive over a long term.

You may have come across the heartbreaking story from Kiwambya Village in Kalongongo Sub-county, Nakasongola District, where thugs reportedly attacked a farm, killing 220 animals and leaving some farm workers injured.
Beyond the shock of such an incident, it got me thinking about the enormous financial and emotional loss the farm owner and workers must now be dealing with.It is moments like these that remind us why risk protection matters.
Agriculture insurance works. It can help farmers recover when the unexpected happens and protect the investments they have worked so hard to build.
This incident inspired this piece monitor.co.ug/uganda/oped/co…
