  • Janmyr Civil Militias in Uganda NJHR Aug 2014.Pdf (150.8Kb)
    Nordic Journal of Human Rights, 2014 Vol. 32, No. 3, 199–219, http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/18918131.2014.937203 Recruiting Internally Displaced Persons into Civil Militias: The Case of Northern Uganda Maja Janmyr* Researcher, Faculty of Law, University of Bergen, Norway This article explores the state-sanctioned recruitment of internally displaced persons (IDPs) into civil militias in northern Uganda between 1996 and 2006. Drawing upon international and Ugandan domestic law, as well as empirical research in Uganda, it provides an illustrative case study of the circumstances in which IDPs were mobilised into an array of civil militias. By applying a framework elaborated by the UN Commission on Human Rights, it discusses, and subsequently determines, the lawfulness of this mobilisation. When doing so, the article highlights how, in Uganda, civil militias were dealt with completely outside of domestic law, despite repeated calls from Ugandan MPs to establish their lawfulness. It finds that government authorities long denied any liability for the conduct of the militias, and argues that the uncertain position of the civil militias created plenty of room for unmonitored conduct and substantial human rights abuse. Keywords: Military recruitment; forced recruitment; civil militia; civil defence forces; auxiliary forces; internally displaced persons; Uganda 1. Introduction Military recruitment in the context of displacement has taken place on almost every continent and constitutes one of the most problematic security issues within refugee and internally displaced persons (IDP) camps.1 Refugees and IDPs have long been recruited by both state and non-state actors, forced or otherwise. At the same time, from the perspective of international law, one form of recruitment – recruitment into civil militias – is particularly understudied.

  • Annual Performance Report 2013/2014
    THE JUSTICE LAW AND ORDER SECTOR ANNUAL PERFORMANCE REPORT 2013/2014 FOREWORD The Justice Law and Order Sector (JLOS) brings together 17 institutions responsible for administering justice, maintaining law and order and promoting the observance of human rights. JLOS is a significant innovation now in operation for over 14 years as a holistic Government approach focused on promoting the rule of law using a sector wide approach. The Justice Law and Order Sector in Uganda is rated as a huge success and a regional flag bearer in policy and strategic coordination in justice and law enforcement reforms. Embedded within the national planning framework and a rights based approach, the sector-wide approach(Swap) has grown from an initial local based pilot into a collaboration that draws together close to one third of government institutions. Steeped in this success, the JLOS intends to sustain this growth and its dividends. JLOS is now in the second year of implementation of the third sector strategic investment plan following the successful implementation of the first and second investment plans. The sector is proud to note that there is now a more developed system approach to evidence based budgeting with increased coordination, communication and cooperation in public service delivery and development assistance in the sector. There is growing public trust in JLOS service delivery as we strive to walk the talk of enhancing public confidence in the judicial process. The sector has also redefined the commercial and criminal justice system which is now the basis of reforms in other African countries and we have been rated the best in Africa and 4th in the World in terms of our offender rehabilitation programmes.
