Uganda

In Uganda, we engaged with informal-economy workers ranging from taxi drivers, motorcycle drivers and delivery drivers to market vendors, students, journalists, bloggers and farmers in Central and Northern regions (Kampala, Luweero and Gulu). As a former British protectorate, the legacy of English and its use online is strong; even with the use of local language, respondents tended to code-switch. There is a dearth of resources in local languages for Ugandans that do not speak English who want to be online.
