In 2007, KYC broadened its scope to provide ICT training and mobile library services and to facilitate recreational and life skills activities. In this way KYC reaches out to more youth who benefit from the activities for their personal development. To date, KYC’s library has been visited by over 60,000 youth, and has worked with over 30 schools through its mobile library services.

  • Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory for Kampala City and Metropolitan Region
    Greenhouse Gas Emissions Inventory for Kampala City and Metropolitan Region Final Report Shuaib Lwasa Makerere University February 2013 1 Executive Summary This report presets a greenhouse gas emission inventory that was conducted as a baseline for Kampala city and 2012 as the base year. The inventory was conducted using the Global Protocol for Community-Scale Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GPC). The GPC builds on previous protocols that include the International Local Government GHG Emissions Analysis Protocol (ICLEI), Draft International Standard for Determining Greenhouse Gas Emissions for Cities (UNEP/UN-HABITAT/WB), GHG Protocol Standards (WRI/WBCSD), Baseline Emissions Inventory/Monitoring Emissions Inventory methodology (EC-CoM JRC), and Local Government Operations Protocol (ICLEI-USA). The baseline results are estimates of community-based emissions attributed to the 196 sq km of surface area of Kampala city and the city region that spans an area of 941.2 sq km. The population estimates of Kampala city at base year stand at 1.72 m and for the city-region 3.56 m adjusted from 2007 data. The total CO2e emissions stand at 313,320 tCO2e distributed as 53,178.5 tCO2e from stationary units, 26,407.3 tCO2e from mobile units, 203,771 tCO2e from wastes, 29,926.4 tCO2e from Industrial Processes and Product uses and 35.5 tCO2e from Agriculture, Forestry and Land Use. Using the adjusted population of the city, the percapita emission stands at 0.18216 tCO2e for in-boundary population and 0.08801 tCO2e for combined in-boundary and out-boundary population. Emissions are calculated based on activity data acquired from multiple sources and checked for minimization of overestimate and underestimate.

  • Kampala City
    KAMPALA CITY Stimulus Paper PASCAL International Exchanges Dr. Joseph Oonyu and Dr. Josephine Esaete, School of Education College of Education and External Studies, Makerere University __________________________________________________________________________ 2 Kampala City has evolved from a small town of 8 km through a “City of Seven hills” at independence in 1962 to one of the fastest growing cities in Africa. Today Kampala City occupies more than twenty five hills that include Makerere Hill on which the country‟s biggest and oldest university is located (Kibirige, 2006). The hills have steep slopes separated by wide valleys. The city derives its name from the land of “Impala” (antelope) that roamed the area before it was taken over for human settlement. The first administrative post was set up at Old Kampala Hill by Lord Lugard (British Administrator) in 1890 covering an area of 0.68 km2. It was gazetted into a town council in 1906 with an area of 8 km2 and was extended to cover an area of approximately 195 km2 in 1968. In 1962, Kampala replaced Entebbe as the capital of Uganda. Despite its proximity (32 km) to the equator, the city has a moderate climate, largely because of its altitude (about 1,220 m). Kampala City is located in the central region of the country, which experienced the first contact with European Missionaries and Arab traders at the turn of the previous century. The City today has grown into a commercial, educational, cultural and administrative centre of Uganda with an approximate population of 2.5 million people. Considering that the population was 330,700 in 1969, 1,208,544 million in 2002, and 1,811.794 in 2010, this signals rapid urbanization in the country.

  • Kampala City Roads Rehabilitation Project Country: Uganda
    Language: English Original: English PROJECT: KAMPALA CITY ROADS REHABILITATION PROJECT COUNTRY: UGANDA ESIA SUMMARY FOR THE PROPOSED SELECTED ROAD LINKS AND JUNCTIONS/INTERSECTIONS TO IMPROVE MOBILITY IN KAMPALA CITY Date: May 2019 Team Leader: G. MAKAJUMA, Transport Engineer, RDGE.3 Preparation Team E&S Team Member: E.B. KAHUBIRE, Social Development Officer, RDGE4 /SNSC 1 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1. Traffic congestion in Kampala city is fast growing due to a combination of poor roads network, uncontrolled junctions, and insufficient roads capacity which is out of phase with the increasing traffic (vehicular and pedestrian) on Kampala roads. This congestion results into higher vehicle operating costs, long travel times and poor transport services. The overall city aesthetics and quality of life is highly compromised by the dilapidated paved roads and sidewalks, unpaved shoulders and unpaved roads which are sources of mud and dust that hovers over large sections of the City. 1.2. The Government of Uganda through Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA) with support from the African Development Bank intends to improve mobility in Kampala City through improvement of selected road links and Junctions/intersections. The selected junctions/intersections are to be signalized while the selected roads are to be dualled or reconstructed or upgraded to paved standard. 1.3. The National Environmental Act, CAP 153 requires that an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is undertaken for all projects that are listed under the third schedule of the Act with a view of sustainable development. The proposed project is one of the projects listed under Section 3 (Transportation) of the Schedule. Therefore, to fulfill legal requirements an EIA has been conducted for the proposed project as part of the consultancy services for the preliminary and detailed engineering design of selected road links and junctions/intersections to improve mobility in Kampala City under the Second Kampala Institutional and Infrastructure Development Project.

Both local and transnational companies are rapidly locating in Kampala due to its emerging markets for produced goods and services, cheap labor costs, tax holidays offered by the government to encourage foreign investments and other economies of scale. Furthermore, rural-urban migration and high birthrates result in rapid urban population growth which influences the land use in the area. Increasing demand for urban land has led to land scarcity and maximum utilization of any available land. This thesis aimed at exploring unplanned land use changes in some parishes of Kawempe Division in Kampala. The objective was to show how land use has changed in these areas over time, the causes of such changes and the perceptions of unplanned land use changes by various stakeholders.
