The physical hazards may include injury from sharp objects such as broken land, but also on risky bottles and needles in waste dumps. areas like former waste- Chemical hazards involve exposure through contact of chemicals with the skin, dumping sites, scrap inhalation of dust from contaminated soil yards, wetlands and or gaseous emissions and through ingestion of food crops contaminated with toxic roadsides. waste from soil and wastewater. Psychosocial hazards may arise from insecurity due to unclear land tenure, loss of farmland, fear of theft and violence or overload due to long hours of work. Biological hazards may be due to parasitic worms, bacteria and vector-borne diseases, such as malaria parasites hosted by certain food crops with life cycles in humans and other media.

  • Accountability for Acts of Torture by Counter Terrorism Law Enforcement Officials in Uganda
    3 Accountability for Acts of Torture by Counter Terrorism Law Enforcement Officials in Uganda Emmanuel Okurut* ABSTRACT The paper discusses the challenge of countering terrorism by law enforcement agencies in Uganda while at the same time ensuring full recognition and protection of rights of suspects such as freedom from torture, inhuman and degrading treatment. The paper notes that agencies responsible for combatting terrorism in Uganda have been known to execute their duties and responsibilities sometimes in complete disdain of the prohibition under Uganda’s Constitution and other laws of all forms of torture and cruel, inhumane and degrading treatment of suspects or offenders. The paper suggests strategies for turning this around. They include incorporating in the legislative framework accountability measures for law enforcement agencies; countering terrorism only through units properly established under laws incorporating accountability measures; and improved training and education of law enforcement agencies on human rights likely to be violated in counter terrorism activities. 1. INTRODUCTION The problem of torture has been a serious challenge within Uganda’s police force and has persisted over the years regardless of a number of measures against the practice.1 The practice of torture has permeated the entire police force but has been more pronounced in the fight against terrorism by the Counter Terrorism Police Unit and its affiliated security agencies.2 The threat of crime such as terrorism in Uganda has had a number of implications on the safety and security of the country. In response to these threats, the Ugandan * LLB (UB); LLM (Pretoria); LLD (Pretoria). Email: [email protected].

  • 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.
