  • Lwengo District Local Government Statistical Abstract 2018-2019
    THE REPUBLIC OF UGANDA LWENGO DISTRICT LOCAL GOVERNMENT STATISTICAL ABSTRACT 2018-2019 Figure 1 Lwengo District Local Government P.O Box 1330, Masaka Tel: +256-0772454754 E-mail: [email protected] Website: www.lwengo.go.ug August 2019 ii | P a g e FOREWORD The importance of statistics in informing planning and monitoring of government programmes cannot be over emphasised. We need to know where we are, determine where we want to reach and also know whether we have reached there. The monitoring of socio-economic progress is not possible without measuring how we progress and establishing whether human, financial and other resources are being used efficiently. However, these statistics in many occasions have been National in outlook and less District specific. The development of a District-based Statistical Abstract shall go a long way to solve this gap and provide District tailored statistics and will reflect the peculiar nature of the District by looking at specific statistics which would not be possible to provide at a higher level. Data and statistics are required for designing, planning, implementing, monitoring and evaluating development programmes. For instance, statistics on school enrolment, completion rates and dropout rates etc. are vital in the monitoring of Universal Primary Education (UPE) and Universal Secondary Education (USE) programmes. Statistics are also needed for establishing grant aid to community schools, staff levels and other investments in the education programmes. The collection and use of statistics and performance indicators is critical for both the successful management and operation of the sectors, including Lower Local Governments. For data to inform planning and service delivery it should be effectively disseminated to the various users and stakeholders.

  • A Case Study of the Teso Sub-Region, Eastern Uganda
    Indian Journal of Traditional Knowledge Vol. 11 (2), April 2012, pp. 217-224 Role of Indigenous Knowledge in Climate Change Adaptation: A case study of the Teso Sub-Region, Eastern Uganda Anthony Egeru School of Forestry, Environment and Geographical Sciences, Department of Environmental Management, Makerere University, PO Box 7062 Kampala, Uganda Emails: [email protected]/[email protected] Received 20.10.2011, revised 21.12.2011 This study examined the role of indigenous knowledge in climate change adaptation in Uganda with specific focus on the Teso sub-region. Specifically, the study identified indigenous knowledge practices used in climate change adaptation, documented indigenous knowledge in climate observation, and identified constraints to indigenous knowledge use for climate change adaptation. Data was collected using semi-structured questionnaires, individual interviews, focused group discussions and observation of local traditional rites. Local observations confirmed altered climate patterns noticeable from the changes in the planting, weeding and harvesting periods in agriculture, in tree growth, and in wind directions. Farmers still observe the intensity of East-West blowing winds, colour of the clouds in the East, and plant traits for rainfall prediction. In addition, they also rely on the meteorological information disseminated through the local radio stations. Low mastery of indigenous knowledge practices by younger community members and persistently changing weather patterns have challenged community reliance on indigenous knowledge for climate change adaptation. There is need to strengthen dissemination of indigenous knowledge and to integrate modern approaches that strengthen indigenous knowledge in climate change adaptation and resilience. Keywords: Adaptation, Climate change, Indigenous knowledge, Teso Uganda IPC Int.
