About World Brief

World Brief is an independent online news and blog platform, founded in Kampala, Uganda in 2023 and owned and published by World Brief. We are not affiliated with any political party, government body or corporate group. We cover the stories that matter to Ugandans — from Parliament and the economy to the neighbourhoods, sports fields and cultural life of the country — and we follow the regional and global events that shape them.

Our newsroom publishes across National and World news, Politics, Business, Technology, Lifestyle, Entertainment, Sports and Travel, supported by photo and video galleries and a reader blog. New reporting is added throughout the day.

Our Mission

We started World Brief in 2023 to give readers in Uganda and the diaspora a clear, honest account of what is happening in their country. We believe a well-informed public is the foundation of a healthy nation, and that good journalism should serve citizens rather than any political or commercial interest.

Every day we aim to report the facts first, add the context that explains why a story matters, and keep our news coverage clearly separate from opinion and analysis.

What We Stand For

Independence: our editorial decisions are made in the newsroom, free of outside influence. Accuracy: every article is checked before it is published, and when we get something wrong we correct it quickly and say so. Fairness: we give people and institutions a chance to respond before we publish claims about them. Transparency: advertising, partner content and sponsored posts are always labelled and never disguised as editorial reporting.
