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.
