formal national registries exist for Uganda’s creative professionals. Before UmojaCreatives, there was no way to find, hire, or count them.
35+
creative disciplines covered by the platform — from Luganda gospel music to Acholi traditional dance, to Kampala-based graphic designers.

Uganda’s creative
economy, finally
formally organised.

UmojaCreatives is more than a streaming app or a jobs board. It is Uganda’s national creative economy infrastructure — the first platform that formally registers every creative professional in the country, connects them to clients and audiences, and ensures they earn in a way that is documented, protected, and paid directly to their phone.

Every registration on UmojaLink contributes to the first real-time national census of Uganda’s creative workforce — data that informs government policy, development investment, and international partnership.

What creatives are saying.

Before UmojaCreatives, I was sharing my music only on WhatsApp groups. Now I have 1,200 subscribers who pay every week via MTN MoMo. This is the first time my music has paid my rent.

I am a fashion designer in Gulu. Nobody outside of Gulu knew me. I registered on UmojaLink and within two months I had three commissions — one from a client in Nairobi. The escrow meant I was paid before I even started sewing.

I have been writing scripts for five years and nobody was paying me properly. I put three scripts on UmojaWork as digital products. They have sold 14 times in two months. I did the work once and it keeps earning.
