Blogger Team: Naomi Kabarungi

By Naomi Kabarungi

My name is Naomi Kabarungi, 26 years old. I graduated from Makerere University with a Bachelor of Mass Communication early this year but had long before discovered, and exploited an interest in communicating with people.

I believe that everybody has a story to tell, whether politician, peasant, street kid or beauty queen! Actually all the stories I have had published in the local newspapers are human-interest personality profiles.

There has been a lot of hype about the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM) in Kampala. I figured that the Commonwealth People’s Forum was one place that would be easily and largely accessible to me as a common person; and to share what other people outside the political sphere think of the whole event.

I hope to publish a blog and keep it going even after CHOGM is over. I am looking forward to conversations with people all over the world, about topics that they are passionate about. I also hope to learn new skills in audio and video recording, and definitely blogging, which is a whole new experience for me.

Here’s a short piece of audio created by me about my involvement in the event.
