A Resilience Approach to Humanitarian Development Response
Deconstructing Notions of Resilience: Exploring coping strategies and resilience in post-conflict Uganda Working paper No: 1 Resilience and humanitarianism in the face of recurrent crisis and fragility: A resilience approach to humanitarian development response Ponsiano Bimeny (Department of Development Studies, SOAS, University of London) Published July 2019 Firoz Lalji Centre for Africa London School of Economics and Political Science London WC2A 2AE UK www.lse.ac.uk/africa 1 Abstract This paper discusses the circumstances under which international humanitarian development interventions may unintentionally compromise and exacerbate community’s vulnerability rather than enhance its resilience capacity. It concerns humanitarian interventions that target specific social systems with the aim of systemic change so as to improve their resilience to current as well as future stresses and shocks. Mercy Corps’ (MC) resilience approach to relief, recovery and development in recurrent crisis and fragility settings provides a case for examining the implication of its Revitalisation of Agricultural Incomes and New Market (RAIN) project implementation in Lamwo District, Northern Uganda. The paper is based on a review of RAIN’s publicly accessible online project resources, and qualitative data collected through interviews and observation between September 2017 and April 2018. Two analytical perspectives are employed, that is, determining the ‘critical loop’ or ‘triggers of change’ of a system and their ‘feedback mechanism’; and interpreting the feedbacks generated by the system prior to and during the intervention. The findings reveal that MC identified ‘market’ as ‘trigger of change’ particularly in addressing poverty and adapted a light- touch facilitative approach to market system development. In the course of RAIN’s implementation, significant progress was registered particularly in addressing the distorted and unstable market as it became more robust and resilient.

11. Road Network Development Plan
The Project for Rural Road Network Development in Acholi Sub-region in Northern Uganda Final Report Vol.2: Main Report 11. ROAD NETWORK DEVELOPMENT PLAN 11.1 Planning Approach 11.1.1 Overview of the Study Area As explained in Chapter 9, Regional Development Plan, the study area has a potential for agricultural industry; Kitgum would become a new development centre in the region while Gulu remains a main regional centre because of concentrations of administrative and commercial activities. Hence, the regional development would mainly be realized as the two cities develop. In addition, South Sudan would have positive impacts on exportation from the area because of the geographical and distance advantages. South Sudan needs various materials and agricultural products from outside of the country and improvement and development of industries in South Sudan may take some time. Therefore, the Mombasa-Nairobi-Kampla- Gulu-Nimule-Juba route would become the most important and busiest corridor in terms of goods transported to/from South Sudan for the time being. To establish fast and reliable accesses to the route is expected to enhance the regional development. In addition to the said South Sudan route, the Kitgum-Lira road would also become important which gives the shortest access to Kenya from the region. Kenya is one of the biggest countries importing agricultural products from Uganda and this trend will continue. Hence, when Kitgum is developed in terms of agriculture industry, Kenya can be focused on as a market in addition to Kampala. The road network in the study area is formed in a redial pattern cantered on Gulu and Kitgum and there are two main axes running north-south in the area which coincides with the above development direction.

Planning and Preparation of Urgent Project in Acholi Sub-Region
PART 3: PLANNING AND PREPARATION OF URGENT PROJECT IN ACHOLI SUB-REGION PART 3: PLANNING AND PREPARATION OF URGENT PROJECT IN ACHOLI SUB-REGION SECTION 8: BACKGROUND AND CONTENTS OF THE URGENT PROJECT Project for Rural Road Network Planning in Northern Uganda Final Report Vol.2: Main Report 27. BACKGROUND OF THE URGENT PROJECT 27.1 Background of the Request for Peace Building Grant Aid 27.1.1 Background of the Request Northern Uganda has the largest proportion of people living in poverty in the country, estimated to account for 61 % of the region’s population, or almost twice the national level. This high level of poverty can be attributed to the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA) insurgency. During the 20 year-conflict beginning in the 1980s, much of the basic social infrastructure was destroyed or abandoned and the local government became non-functional in the region. In particular, 90 % of the population were displaced (IDP: Internally Displaced Person) from Acholi Sub-region. Since the cease-fire agreement concluded between LRA and the Government of Uganda in August 2006, the Government of Uganda has emphasized and facilitated the return process of IDPs and prepared the National Peace Recovery and Development Plan (PRDP) in order to stabilize and recover Northern Uganda. The PRDP identifies 14 priority programmes such as rebuilding and empowering communities (health, education, water, livelihood support) and it emphasizes the importance of infrastructure rehabilitation and improvement of a trunk road network connecting the districts and a community access road network. Under these circumstances, the ten year District, Urban and Community Access Road Investment Plan (DUCARIP) has been prepared to provide a financing framework for investments in district, urban and community access roads.

ASSESSMENT TEAM COMPOSITION Lead: UNHCR Participating Agencies: Local Government (District Water office; Environmental Health office); LWF; UNICEF; VEDCO B. GENERAL INFORMATION Dates of Assessment: 22nd - 24th February 2017 Locations: Lamwo District: Palabek Kal; Palabek Ogili; Palabek Gem Sub-counties GPS coordinates: 3º22′38.52″N, 32º30′3.17″E Total Population*: Lamwo District: 171,300 Sub-counties: 9 Household Size: 6 Population in Target Areas*: Palabek Kal: 14,620 Palabek Ogili: 9,729 Palabek Gem: 15,207 Expected refugee population: 100,000 (planning figure - to be informed by site carrying capacity) *Source: National Census 2014 C. BACKGROUND In the last eight months (July 2016 - Feb 2017) Uganda has continued to receive asylum seekers from South Sudan following an extended period of instability in parts of the country. The refugee influx to Uganda especially through the border points at Ngomoromo, Waligo, Aweno Olwiyo and Madi Opei - all in Lamwo District has led to proposal of settlement site in the district. The proposed site covers part of Palabek Gem, Palabek Kal and Palabek Ogili sub-counties. In preparation for ground-setting, UNHCR in partnership with Lamwo District Local Government (District Water Office; District Environmental Health Office; and the Local authority), LWF, UNICEF, and VEDCO organized a field assessment for New arrivals at Waligo border point Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene from 22nd - 23rd February. The assessment involved visits to the border points, proposed settlement site, a health facility, school and water and sanitation infrastructure in and around the proposed site. Methodology: Information was collected mainly through Observations; Unstructured interviews with key informants - including communities, government officials (water, health, education, local authorities, and immigration); and reviews of secondary data.
