Joint definition and agreement upon the main ingredients of an integral spatial development strategy with inclusive, circular business cases that: a. form solutions to the challenges in and around the Kajjansi market area; b. create new business opportunities for Dutch enterprises with expertise in sustainable urban development. 2. Establishment of the concept of learning living lab and further development of the sustainable business opportunities in the area. 3. Establishment of the governance of the programme by installing a Programme Steering Committee and agreement upon their Terms of Reference and needed capacity. The proposal for the Dutch Fund for Creative Industry was approved in November 2016 and is being used to further fine-tune the integrated spatial strategy, with emphasis on the various design typologies for the market and its surroundings. The Kajjansi Junction Programme also aims to demonstrate 1) how African cities can adopt a more inclusive and circular development model and 2) how Netherlands Inc. can contribute to this with our “Sustainable Urban Delta “ approach (part of Holland Branding). Preparations for this programme started already in October 2015, when the Ugandan Local Government Association (ULGA), the umbrella organisation of all local governments in Uganda, requested a team of CSR Netherlands to support them in gaining insight in sustainable urban development models that benefit people, environment and local economy. To further explore these new urban models, a pilot area was selected ( Kajjansi) and a joint Ugandan and Dutch expert team was put together consisting of: ULGA, Uganda: Facility and process support DASUDA, Netherlands: Urban, spatial and mobility expertise TwentyOne, Netherlands: Sustainable value creation, multistakeholder management and overall process management Kajjansi Strategy endorsment 6 7 Summary of main results of the Strategy Stage1 Achieved activities and results between October 2016 and January 2017 In the following chapters the results are described in detail, giving attention to: 1.

Applied Research, Education And Training Characteristics, structure and resources of the sector Summary Uganda produces up to 15 000 tonnes of fish from aquaculture, including production from small-scale fish farmers, emerging commercial fish farmers and stocked community water reservoirs and minor lakes. There are an estimated 20 000 ponds throughout the country with an average surface area of 500 m² per pond. Production ranges between 1 500 kg per hectare per year for subsistence farmers to 15 000 kg per hectare per year for emerging commercial fish farmers. With improved market prices for fish, government intervention for increased production and stagnating supply from capture fisheries, aquaculture has begun to attract entrepreneurial farmers seeking to exploit the business opportunity provided by the prevailing demand for fish. This recent expansion in aquaculture has also resulted in the transformation of 20 percent to 30 percent of the smallholder subsistence ponds into profitable small-scale production units through developments in management as well as scale of production.

Box 343, Jinja Haplochromis nyererei Abstract Preliminary studies undertaken to investigate the availability of ornamental fish species in Uganda’s natural water systems, revealed significant abundance of coloured fishes in Uganda’s water systems including the Kyoga and Victoria Lake system. These species are able to breed in captivity and to feed on artificial diets in ponds and glass tanks. The species are attractive and are highly marketable. These Platytaeniodus sp. (Red tail) observations indicate the potential to culture ornamental fishes as away of diversifying the range of aquaculture species, a means to generate income and to improve livelihoods in Uganda. Introduction Ornamental Fish Trade is one of the most lucrative businesses in the world today, fetching close to USD 15 billion annually (Helfaman, 2007). This trade is led by countries such as Singapore, Hong Kong and Psammochromis riponanus Malaysia, with a diversity of ichthofauna as is the case in Uganda. This trade is popular and profitable because the unit value of ornamental fish is higher than that of food fish. In Uganda, several middle men have taken to collecting some ornamental fishes from Lakes Kyoga and Victoria, however, this is not ecologically sustainable.
