COMMUNICATION is very vital in services delivery, especially in the medical sector.
Native Luganda speakers have names associated with different diseases but many medical practitioners cannot relate these terms to the medical terminologies for these diseases and this usually may lead to misunderstandings between patients and medical services providers.
By compiling medical terminologies and their Luganda equivalents and meanings, the Luganda/ Lusoga/ Lugwere Vehicular Cross-border Language Commission aims at easing communication between patients and medical service providers, and also supporting teaching and learning in the medical field for the students and teachers in the Luganda speaking areas.
