Media monitoring in Uganda

Social Light monitors Uganda's newspapers, radio, television, online news and social media, in English and Luganda, and tells you about a story while you can still act on it.

Uganda's media

Uganda has national dailies in English, a widely read Luganda press, and many local radio stations broadcasting in the country's languages.

Questions

Do you monitor Uganda's local-language media?

Yes. Coverage is read in the language it was published in, including English and Luganda, and briefs are written in English.

How quickly will I hear about a story?

Alerts go out at the moment a story publishes, across every channel in your scope, rather than in a digest the next morning.

Can I try Social Light before paying?

Yes. Creating an account takes about ten minutes and does not ask for a card. Nothing is charged until you choose a package. You can also book a demo, or take our free media intelligence assessment.
