As a Senior Lecturer at Makerere University’s College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, Rosemary Isoto Emegu relishes the crucial role she can play in shaping young minds – which will ultimately be the decision-makers of tomorrow. As an academic, she is also involved in research designed to help influence agricultural policy. She recently collaborated with the Ministry of Agriculture on a paper regarding the value addition of egg processing. A key interest is how financial policy can better include and support women in accessing credit – an area she is currently focusing on.
