英文摘要:

Utilizing mobile and social media platforms is a transformative approach to enhancing freedom of expression and fostering digital engagement. However, Uganda's digital ecosystem faces challenges such as restrictive legislation, financial barriers, and the absence of localized platforms tailored to cultural contexts. This study employed a mixed-methods approach to explore how these platforms influence public discourse, activism, and civic participation while highlighting opportunities for local innovation. The research further identified the critical need for regulatory reforms, investments in digital literacy, and collaborative efforts to develop sustainable and culturally relevant platforms, ensuring a more inclusive and empowered digital society. Keywords: Freedom of Expression, Mobile Services, Social Media Platforms, Local Digital Innovation, Uganda's Digital Ecosystem
