Since 2015, she has chaired the Education Committee, a portfolio through which she has spearheaded the organisation of AUUS educational forums, conferences, symposia, and capacity-building programs for sports administrators and student leaders across member institutions.<br />Her candidature is seen as a continuation of her commitment to raising the standards of university sports through both administration and capacity development. If elected, Dr. Baluka would bring to the presidency a wealth of institutional knowledge and experience from her decade of service within AUUS structures.<br />In her vision for AUUS, Dr. Baluka emphasizes strengthening governance structures, enhancing transparency, and building stronger partnerships with both national and international sports bodies. Her strategic plan also prioritizes talent development, expanded opportunities for student-athletes, and continued investment in education and capacity-building initiatives that empower sports leaders across universities.<br />The AUUS Elective Assembly is scheduled for 26th September 2025  at Uganda Christian University in Mukono, where the ballots will decide the leadership for the 2025–2029 term.</p> <div> <div class="field field--name-field-media-document field--type-file field--label-visually_hidden"> <div class="field__label visually-hidden">Document</div> <div class="field__item"><span class="file file--mime-application-pdf file--application-pdf"><a href="/index.php/sites/default/files/2025-09/manifesto-auus-2.pdf" type="application/pdf">manifesto-auus-2.pdf</a></span> <span>(1.18 MB)</span> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-tags field--type-entity-reference field--label-above field--tags"> <h3 class="field__label field--tags__label">Tags</h3> <ul class="links field__items field--tags__items"> <li class="field--tags__item"><a href="/index.php/tags/voting" hreflang="en">voting</a></li> </ul> </div> <section data-drupal-selector="comments" class="comments"> <h2 class="comments__title">Comments</h2> </section> <div class="primary-image field field--name-field-image field--type-image field--label-hidden field__item"> <img src="/sites/default/files/images/article/2025/screenshot-2025-09-23-161245.png" width="706" height="600" alt="" title="Dr. Agnes Baluka Masajja Joins Race for AUUS Presidency" loading="lazy" /> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-display-website field--type-list-string field--label-above"> <div class="field__label">Display Website</div> <div class="field__item">General</div> </div> Tue, 23 Sep 2025 13:09:03 +0000 ivan 377 at https://news.busitema.ac.ug
