  • Speaking the Farmer’s Language, Carbon Removal and Agriculture

    Can a carbon project succeed if the farmers involved do not understand its value?

    Bashir, founder of Stack Carbon, discusses the use of crushed rocks on agricultural land as part of an enhanced rock weathering approach to carbon removal.

    Beyond the science, our conversation explores how to engage smallholder farmers through the issues they already understand, soil health, changing weather, crop yields and profitability.

    An important discussion about translating complex climate technologies into practical agricultural opportunities.

  • What the Energy Transition Means for Ugandans

    Howard Kiwon | Mandulis Energy

    Carbon markets are often discussed through emissions, credits and financing. But what do those numbers mean for an ordinary Ugandan?

    Howard Kiwon of Mandulis Energy brings the energy transition into everyday life, from reliable electricity that allows children to study to cleaner cooking and electric motorcycles that could reduce operating costs for boda boda riders.

    We explore how carbon finance can support practical energy solutions and why the success of climate investment should ultimately be measured in better livelihoods, greater opportunity and improved quality of life.

  • Government’s Growing Role in Carbon Markets

    Peter Benhur Nyeko | Mandulis Energy

    What changes when government stops simply opening industry events and starts participating in the difficult conversations? Peter Benhur Nyeko of Mandulis Energy reflects on the growing engagement of ministers, commissioners, directors and technical officers at the East Africa Carbon Markets Forum 2026. We discuss why Uganda’s emerging carbon market needs stronger cooperation between regulators, developers, investors and communities, and why young people, Members of Parliament and local communities must have a greater voice in shaping its future. An episode about moving from representation to meaningful participation.

  • Why Collaboration Matters in Carbon Markets

    Mark Mutaahi | Carbon Access Lab

    Everyone agrees that Uganda’s carbon market needs collaboration.

    But what does meaningful collaboration actually look like? At the East Africa Carbon Markets Forum 2026, Mark Mutaahi, Co-founder and CEO of Carbon Access Lab, explains why government, investors, banks and project developers can share the same ambition yet struggle to move together.


    Using the analogy of passengers travelling in different carriages of the same train, he explores how understanding each stakeholder’s role, readiness and priorities can help turn conversations into viable partnerships.


    A conversation about connecting the right people to move Uganda’s carbon projects forward.

  • Organisations are replacing their Managers with AI.

    🟢 What if the repetitive parts of your marketing workflow could run without you constantly managing them?

    Research. Drafting. Scheduling. Email campaigns. Reporting.

    Experts Henry Mbwille, Hilda K. share with Aggie patricia Turwomwe, and Betty Kakyo of Agile Media Africa how AI agents can connect these tasks into a working system, using tools such Prompt Genie.

    For smaller teams and entrepreneurs, that matters.

    Not because AI replaces the strategist, but because it can take repetitive work off their desk and create more room for thinking, creativity and relationships.

    The opportunity isn't to automate everything.

    It's to identify what doesn't need your human judgement, and automate that first.

    What is one repetitive task in your workflow you would happily hand over to AI?
