  • “Making Bush Meat Poachers Willingly Surrender Using Integrated Poachers Awareness Programme: a Case of Murchison Falls National Park, Uganda”
    “Making Bush Meat Poachers Willingly Surrender Using Integrated Poachers Awareness Programme: A Case of Murchison Falls National Park, Uganda”. S S. Kato + , J O Okumu ++ . Abstract This paper is an interesting analysis of a unique case in MFPA, one of the East African National Parks in Uganda, where wild animal poachers are targeted in an intensive integrated education and awareness programme that makes them publicly surrender with their tools. The paper brings out yet another important approach that emphasises that for sustainable management of a protected area to be attained, involvement of local community is very important as opposed to the traditional approach of law enforcement, a practice prominent in the last centaury with limited success. MFPA was one of the most tourists’ destinations in the 1960s only to be devastated during Uganda’s civil unrest of 1970s and 1980s owing to the lack of awareness by the local communities that the resources in the PA are important to them too. As the wildlife population is steadily increasing in MFPA, any approach such as the above that has demonstrated a positive move towards sustainable management is welcome. It is a strategy, which can be tried in other protected areas especially in the tropics.

  • AVIATION, TOURISM and CONSERVATION NEWS from Eastern Africa and the Indian Ocean Islands
    AVIATION, TOURISM AND CONSERVATION NEWS from Eastern Africa and the Indian Ocean islands. A weekly roundup of breaking news, reports, travel stories and opinions by Prof. Dr. Wolfgang H. Thome You can get your daily breaking news updates instantly via Twitter by following @whthome, join me on www.facebook.com/WolfgangHThome where the articles also ‘cross load’ or read the daily postings on my blog via www.wolfganghthome.wordpress.com which you can also ‘follow’ to get immediate notification when a new article is posted. First edition December 2012 East Africa News UNITED WE FLY, DIVIDED WE DON’T? The recently held annual general meeting of AFRAA in Johannesburg sprang a few surprises on delegates and aviation pundits, when none other than Kenya Airways’ CEO Dr. Titus Naikuni had the room go so shtumm that a falling leaf could have been heard, as he floated the idea of the key sub Saharan airlines merging to weather the onslaught of the newly emerged Gulf giants as well as the legacy carriers from Europe, all keenly eyeing the continent’s traffic potential. Participants, according to one regular aviation source who attended the conference, sat up literally pinching themselves to make sure they were not dreaming this up, as Dr. Naikuni elaborated on the competitive threat to African airlines, who, no matter how strong individually or within their alliances, were at the receiving end of Emirates, Qatar Airways, Etihad and more recently of such emerging giants like Turkish, all expanding their destination network across the continent at the expense of the often weak national airlines but even at the expense of the three African giants, minnows though in comparison to what they face as competition in the skies above Africa.

  • UCF-MFPA-Stakeholder-Forum-Report
    IMPLEMENTING PARK ACTION PLANS STAKEHOLDER COORDINATION FORUM REPORT Convened by UGANDA CONSERVATION FOUNDATION November 2018 Part of the Implementing Park Action Plans project, led by IIED in partnership with Uganda Wildlife Authority, Uganda Conservation Foundation, Village Enterprise and Wildlife Conservation Society. Funded by the UK Government through the Illegal Wildlife Trade Challenge Fund. PREAMBLE The Murchison Falls Protected Area stakeholder coordination forum took place at Country Inn, Masindi on 23rd October 2018. Of 36 invited guests, speakers and organisers, 29 attended (see attendee sheet in Annex 1). Every district bordering MFPA1 was represented by at least one local government official. Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWa) was represented by staff from the Kampala headquarters, MFCA headquarters at Paraa and both Bugungu and Karuma wildlife reserves. Civil society representation included actors delivering projects in Buliisa, Masindi, Kiryandongo, Oyam and Nwoya districts. The coordination forum is funded by the UK Government through the Illegal Wildlife Trade Challenge Fund. OPENING REMARKS Adonia Bintoora, Senior Manager – Community-based Wildlife Enterprises, UWA Adonia officially opened the forum, making the following remarks. 1. As human populations worldwide increase, wildlife is becoming increasingly isolated into islands of natural habitat. Uganda is not immune to this and is facing multiple challenges in conserving wildlife whilst ensuring better futures for its people. 2. This forum came about from research conducted by IIED into the drivers of wildlife crime in Uganda and is intended for actors working around the Murchison Falls Protected Area. UWA staff in MFCA are just 368 people – those 368 people cannot be expected to protect wildlife in isolation from the thousands of people who live around the park, or without the support from other stakeholders operating in these areas.
