Crafting Wealth Across Uganda: Inside the Uganda Filmmakers SACCO Regional Activation Tour.

Uganda's film industry is growing. Across the country, filmmakers are telling stories, producing films, building audiences and creating opportunities. But as the industry grows, so must the financial systems that support the people behind it.

For years, many, filmmakers have navigated an industry filled with passion and creativity, but also financial uncertainty. Irregular incomes, limited access to financing and the pressure of funding productions have made it difficult for many creatives to build long-term financial stability.

The Uganda Filmmakers SACCO is changing the conversation by encouraging filmmakers to think beyond individual survival and embrace the power of collective financial growth.

This vision came to life through the first national regional activation exercise, which took the SACCO message across six regions in just 10 days.

From Arua to Gulu, Lira, Soroti, Moroto and Jinja, the activation team travelled across the country, meeting filmmakers, starting conversations and introducing them to the opportunities that come with saving, owning shares and building wealth together.

It was a journey that came with its own challenges.
