Kampala, Uganda – As Uganda approaches the 2026 general elections, young people can capitalize on various opportunities emerging from political campaigns. While many may not have the resources to vie for political office, they can benefit by offering services that are in high demand during this period.
Young individuals can leverage skills in graphic design, photography, and social media management to support political candidates. Graphic designers can create campaign materials like posters and flyers, while photographers can capture campaign events for social media. Social media managers can help candidates maintain a strong online presence, particularly on platforms like TikTok and Facebook.
Additionally, young people can provide sound systems for rallies or act as communication strategists to help candidates craft their messages and manage media appearances.
