Hello, I am Jimmy Muheebwa. I work with NatureUganda, an organisation that promotes the appreciation, understanding and conservation of nature. I currently implement a programme on Education for Sustainable Development in the catchments of Lake Victoria which forms a lifeline of many communities in East Africa.. I am happy to start developing articles on Sustainable Development and posting them on Wikipedia. While I love posting articles on the Wikipedia I also love editing articles posted on the Wikipedia by other people. I am sure I will learn a lot on this platform and hopefully others will help me learn more. I love Uganda and my programme.
