“Through “Opportunities Are Here”, we are bringing fresh, authentic Ugandan stories to the forefront. This platform is a testament to the rich talent within Uganda and the potential for the country’s creative industry to scale both locally and internationally,” said Heather Barnes, the Project Lead at the International Trade Centre.

The ITC and EU have supported this initiative to strengthen Uganda’s creative economy by offering filmmakers mentorship, training, and resources throughout the project’s first season. The result is a collection of remarkable work from filmmakers who have honed their craft and are ready to bring their stories to audiences across Uganda and beyond.

“We are committed to fostering the growth of Uganda’s film sector by empowering local filmmakers,” said Jan Sadek, the EU Ambassador to Uganda. “This series reflects our dedication to supporting Uganda’s creative industries as drivers of economic development and cultural exchange,” he noted.

Opportunities Are Here premieres on NBS TV every Thursdays at 8pm. We invite audiences to tune in and be inspired by the creativity, resilience, and passion of Uganda’s next generation of filmmakers.
