The startup ecosystem in #Uganda is thriving thanks to dynamic actors such as @Renew_Capital @ConvergenceBF @EAVCA. From coffee to fintech to social impact investing the ideas and innovations were on display at this #ARFSD2025 side event. #developmentfinance #SDGs

Wonderful to celebrate (23/4) the end (at least of this phase) of my 25 year career as a civil servant with brilliant, committed colleagues and a few surprise guests. It has been a privilege. My parting messages for the challenges ahead: 1/8 (apologies for late post)

Anne’s passion for Manotick has led to improved pathways, parks, and other community amenities. She never gave up on the vision for a dock in Mahogany Harbour and we finally achieved that because of her. Thank you, Anne!

A failed experiment 5 years ago. (Failed because no one used it). But we still need a good birr sign.

Good read from @StephenBrown3 on Cdn foreign aid. Disappointed the political will isn't there, but is it only politics standing in the way? Much could be done without Min. engagement. Why is civil service so slow to action what it knows to be right? opencanada.org/features/beyo… #ODA

Sad to say I withdrew from all US conferences. I feel uncomfortable attending when some of my colleagues, students & friends are banned.

Spicer says there's been a "dramatic expansion of the federal workforce in recent years." This is unequivocally false.
