Asiimwe JoyTu is a lecturer at Uganda Christian University.

 Doing a PhD in Uganda is not something you are likely to move into straight after your Bachelor degree or even a Master. It may take many years of professional practice before being in a context where your personal and professional situation make such undertaking a feasible step. In this interview, Assimwe JoyTu shares her story into doctoral research. Initially working in the community and developing projects that address children poverty, she then started her lecturing career teaching project planning and management. She had the opportunity to do a Masters degree in the Netherland and enjoyed greatly the experience of meeting people from all over the world. It then took a long time for Asiimwe to be able to join a PhD programme. She is now enjoying her PhD journey.
