Announcing ADIT’s newest Champion: Ann Barnshaw Kengaaju

We are delighted to expand the ADIT Champion programme to Uganda, where Ann Barnshaw Kengaaju will represent a growing number of tax professions who have chosen to pursue the ADIT certificate in Uganda, the biggest ADIT market in Africa. As our Champion for Uganda, Ann will help spread the word about the benefits of ADIT learning while representing the Ugandan ADIT community. A member of the Uganda Law Society, she works as a Tax Consultant with Global Taxation Services Ltd., where she advises clients across different sectors on tax structuring, tax risk management, and oil and gas taxation.

Speaking of her own experiences, Ann says: ‘ADIT is a practical programme that covers the latest international tax legal frameworks and case law, enabling students to keep up to date with international tax. The programme refined my technical expertise in international tax. The networks I gained along the way have helped me keep pace with the dynamic international tax practices and laws.

‘As an ADIT Champion, I aspire to encourage tax professionals in Uganda to keep up with the ever-evolving international tax practices and legal frameworks as these too impact the growth of Uganda’s economy. What better way to keep up with the trends than to enrol for ADIT and join the International Tax Affiliate community!’

This brings the number of ADIT Champions around the world to six, all of whom hold the ADIT qualification and work in international tax, bringing a personal insight into the technical knowledge and career benefits that ADIT certification provides. The Champions play a crucial role in promoting ADIT learning in their countries, and in serving their respective ADIT communities.
