We have been receiving very encouraging updates from our team in Uganda.  We will be sharing all of these as we have the opportunity to talk fully with our team in Uganda.  (They've been so busy with events, we're just getting highlights.)  Some of the most encouraging updates are that representatives from the Ministry of Trade (who control the sale of acid) and Ministry of Justice (who control the law making process) were present and have been very supportive of our efforts.  Representatives from the Judiciary who will try cases and lawyers who will represent survivors were also present and are supportive.  

We LOVE this video of the directors of BTSI dancing in celebration of the amazing work done in the past three days.  Watch it here & read the speech given by RISE's Ellen Galloway.  Feel free to leave a comment for our Ugandan team as well!
