Uganda celebrated World Vitiligo Day with a significant event at the British Council in Kampala. Organized by Satisfashion UG—an online magazine dedicated to fashion and entertainment, Serene Beauty—a premier hair and makeup brand—and the Vitiligo Association of Uganda, in partnership with British Council Uganda.  The event brought together individuals living with vitiligo, healthcare professionals, and allies to raise awareness and support for the vitiligo community.

The event featured a panel discussion with notable individuals living with vitiligo, including Cerinah Tugume, Eva Atukunda, and David Ogutu. Each panelist shared personal experiences, challenges, and triumphs, while debunking common myths about the condition. David Ogutu, a renowned media personality and Vice President – Marketing at Xeno, a goal-based investment service that helps over 100,000 Ugandans plan, save, and invest for their financial goals, highlighted his journey toward acceptance and the importance of not allowing vitiligo to define you.
