										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In December I was off to Uganda for a whirlwind trip of just a few days facilitating a workshop for the Uganda Consortium on Corporate Accountability (UCCA), hosted by the <a href="http://www.iser-uganda.org">Initiative for Social and Economic Rights (ISER)</a>. This was my second trip to Uganda, and I was pleased to reconnect with familiar faces and meet many new ones, too. While on my first visit in 2014 I had visited the oil-rich Albertine, this time the UCCA workshop for NGOs and community-based organizations from across the country was held in Jinja, just outside of Kampala, where I had only previously been for a day for some first-rate whitewater rafting.</p>
<p>While the training covered the gamut of topics ranging from land to conflict, from environmental impact assessment to amicus briefs in investor-State arbitration, and a range of advocacy strategies, one topic unquestionably stole the show and captured participants&#8217; hearts and minds: <a href="https://www.followingthemoney.org">following the money</a>.&nbsp;I was only too happy to share the formidable work of <a href="http://www.inclusivedevelopment.net">Inclusive Development International (IDI)</a> on making investment chain mapping and financier advocacy more accessible to more local communities, grassroots activists and NGOs.</p>
