Our journey of formally introducing ourselves to the leadership at Ministry of Health Uganda, led us to Sheraton Kampala Hotel. We, alongside our colleagues from the Mental Health Division at Ministry of Health Uganda interacted with Dr. Chris Baryomunsi, the Honourable Minister of Health - making known to him who we are, our current works and what our future looks like that includes among others putting together the upcoming 5th Uganda Alcohol Policy Conference (UAPC26) . We look forward to working together better and more, with all stakeholders in the fight against alcohol-related harm.
