Biography

Diana currently serves as Curator at the C.N. Kikonyogo Money Museum. As section head, she works with Uganda Museum during International Museum Week to produce a programme of exhibitions and informative walks around Uganda’s cultural landscapes. She has also worked with Cross Cultural Foundation, Uganda to curate the catalogue for the C.N.K. Money Museum and Uganda Museum’s map.

Previously Diana was the Deputy Curator of the Museum and worked for the Bank of Uganda Archives, under the Research Department.

At the British Museum
During her time on the International Training Programme in 2009, Diana was based in the Department of Africa, Oceania, and the Americas and her partner placement was spent at Tyne and Wear Archives and Museums.

An element of the programme was a morning of presentations, in which groups of participants presented a 10-minute illustrated talk, prompted by the task to consider a new display of the fellows cultures at the British Museum.  Diana’s exhibition proposal was entitled The Ten-Thousand shilling Note from Uganda.

Diana’s participation on the International Training Programme was generously supported by the Bank of Uganda.
