Mending fences of Rwenzururu kingdom with government
The return of His Majesty Charles Mumbere Iremangoma, The King of the Obusinga Bwa Rwenzururu (OBR) Cultural Institution, marks the beginning of a new chapter in the history of the Bakonzo people, and more specifically, the Rwenzururu Kingdom’s relationship with the government in power, as well as with other cultural Institutions both within and outside the country. This ear of improved relations also extends to other ethnic groups, academic institutions, security agencies, and Civil society groups, all of which can play a role in facilitating reconciliation between the OBR and the government.

Highlights of the KRC FM Radio Listenership Survey
Radio remains a significant information and communication tool especially in the rural areas. In 2013, KRC with major funding from Broederlijk Delen founded KRC 102 FM Radio as part of its broader communication strategy. KRC FM’s major objective was to communicate evidence-based information to the farming community, thus deriving its brand name, the “Farmers’ Voice”. Since its establishment, a number of programs have been aired but there has not been any study conducted to establish its listenership.
