Expanding financial inclusion for young women is not simply about fairness; it is about unlocking talent, strengthening resilience, fostering entrepreneurship, and accelerating inclusive economic growth.

Financial inclusion among young women in Uganda has grown significantly, driven largely by mobile money. But access alone isn’t enough.
A new study shows that millions of young women still face barriers to saving, borrowing, investing, and building financial resilience.
Today I’ll be sharing key insights on what it will take to deepen financial inclusion and unlock greater economic opportunities for young women.

Good morning change-makers!
Uganda has roughly 4.5 million young women aged 16-24 — almost 10% of our entire population. These are the make-or-break years that shape their futures, their families, and generations after them.
New research from @fsduganda under the YUWFI initiative looks closely at how these young women are accessing and using financial services. The picture is hopeful in some places… and honest about the gaps in others.

Some opportunities don’t come because people are not talented enough. Sometimes, it’s because nobody knows they exist

At the policy level, we will institutionalize these learnings and work to remove binding constraints, strengthen regulation, and improve access to markets. We must proactively build resilience and avoid reacting only to crises.
In closing, I would like to express my gratitude to all participants for their valuable contributions and insights.

On the demand side, we recognize the need to empower businesses through business development and technical assistance. We will prioritize integrated programming to address the complex challenges faced by SMEs.

Key challenges in linking credit to employment and ensuring equitable access:
- Only 19% of MSE owners agreed that loans contributed to hiring decisions (44% disagreed).
- 85% cited high interest rates; 42% lacked collateral; 27% faced complex application processes.
- 52% reported digital adoption barriers, including poor connectivity and limited skills.
- Refugee and PWD‑led enterprises started from lower profit baselines and expressed lower satisfaction with loan features.

Together, we’re helping children explore technology, learn, and grow in their own unique ways.

“Enabling Inclusive Learning for All”
That was the theme as we celebrated @EcobankGroupe Day as @EcobankUganda at Angels Centre for Persons with Disabilities in Wakiso, a school supporting children with Down Syndrome and other developmental disabilities.
Every moment spent with the little one and their parents was humbling, for me its a gratitude reminder.
In partnership with @SimplifiNetwork Ecobank Uganda donated 25 tablets that the children can use in their learning, a series of assistive devices, and a couple of food items.
We spent the day with the children and teachers, together, we danced, shared stories, laughter, and the joy of the celebration.
How I ended up holding that microphone, story for another day.
Shoutout to the entire team at @EcobankUganda, @ictforPWDs, @AllanKutos and @PluggedInComms for all the on ground coordination that led to the success of the day.
