Janice Nkajja returns to The Ugandan Boy Talk Show this time in person.The first time we spoke, Janice joined us virtually from Milan. Now she returns as the Founder of Civic Coded Africa (CICO), an AI-powered civic education platform created to make governance, laws, public policy, and civic participation easier for young Africans to understand.In this conversation, Janice opens up about building CICO, studying Global Law at Bocconi University in Italy, navigating life as a young African founder, and representing Uganda in international spaces.We also get into some bigger questions:Are young Africans genuinely being given a voice, or are we simply being invited into rooms without the power to influence decisions? Why should someone who says, “I don't care about politics” still understand governance? Can AI be trusted to explain laws and public policy? And are we sometimes confusing social-media activism with real civic participation?Janice also shares lessons from her participation in international youth and policy spaces, including UNESCO APCEIU dialogues and the African Union Continental Dialogue on Youth, Peace, Security, and Women.This isn't just a conversation about politics. It's about understanding the systems that shape our everyday lives and recognizing that young Africans don't have to wait for the future to start participating in the present.🎙️ Guest: Janice NkajjaFounder — Civic Coded Africa (CICO)Policy Analyst | Youth AdvocateSubscribe to The Ugandan Boy Talk Show for more meaningful conversations with people shaping Uganda and Africa.Togwa'mu suubi. 🇺🇬
