From Dictatorship to Democracy, the Luganda Version

A small group of activists who connected through the Facebook Group 'Activists4Change' https://www.facebook.com/groups/activists4change/ have accomplished a small feat by volunteering their time and skills to complete an important project to promote democracy in Uganda.

The activists based in Uganda and abroad have completed translating Gene Sharp's seminal work 'From Dictatorship to Democracy' to a major Ugandan language - Luganda.  The same group is seeking support to work on translating the book into other major Ugandan languages.  The e-book is free and we encourage you to distribute it widely and make it available in schools and institutions of higher learning.  The original English Version of the book can be found here:

I would like to applaud the efforts of the committed A4C activists who completed this translation.  A website is being created where you may access an electronic copy of the Luganda Version.  In the meantime I will be pleased to send the e-book as an attachment to your email Inbox if you request it via

activists4change@gmail.com

Together we can make a difference!
