Brain drain means losing your brains.  Put simply, it means when you lose your qualified people to other countries. This has been going on for decades, perhaps centuries in many countries around the world.You can educate and train people but when the circumstances in your country are not conducive for them to excel at what they learned, they will leave the country to go into another country which promises a better life for them.The world is now a global village and Uganda must keep this in mind.  Information flows at supersonic speeds.  You will lose your most qualified people to other countries and this will impact job creation, innovation and economic growth.Many people do leave their countries, work abroad and return home though.


The case for Uganda is below:
Every human has basic needs – shelter, food, safety, family, education, medical care and employment.Where Uganda has failed most people wholeave the country are all the above.

1.You have shelter but can be kidnapped from your house at night. Or you can have robbers show up andgun you down while walking away with your kabiriti and analog TV.

2.Some 10 million Ugandans do not have enough to eat daily. We are talking about one of the most fertile countries on earth.  When you take away the lands from the people, they cannot grow food to feed their families, community and the country.

3.Safety is something that is on everyone’s mind these days.  Arbitrary arrests and kidnappings with the ensuring tortures make people fear for their lives.

4.Did you know that these days familiesin Uganda do not even trust each other? Then those who stick together end up losing one or two of their family members.

5.Education seems to be horrendous. How do you graduate tens of thousands of kids yearly and then you think the best thing is to send them abroad?  You are draining the country of your own brains.  You only do this because you have bastardizedthe education system so badly that you think a 3 or 4 year degree is worthless in your own country?  Is that the case?  Do you know how much these young people and their families sacrifice to get that degree?.
