Why Uganda's Juliet found passion in record keeping

  • Why she found passion in record keeping

Juliet Mary Nakalembe, 25, is a holder of a Bachelor’s degree in Records and Archives from Makerere University. When Nakalembe was growing up, she wanted to become a journalist. According to her, journalism makes one famous in addition to having the power to change things through story writing. It also gives someone the opportunity to freely interact with people from different backgrounds, including government bigwigs.

Unfortunately, her dream to be a journalist was never realized. Frequent intimidation and attacks on journalists by some security agencies forced her to change her mind. She quickly found passion in record keeping. She is a beneficiary of the Work Readiness Programme jointly implemented by Enabel and Private Sector Foundation Uganda with funding from the European Union. She is among the seven graduates who were retained by Steel and Tube Industries Limited in Namanve Industrial Park, along Jinja Road.

She currently works as a Data Clerk. When different products are manufactured, she records them into the system. Nakalemba says that the skills she acquired during the training such as communication and management will help her set up her own business in future.
