The Resident District Commissioner, Luwero District gave the exercise a green light and we are grateful to him. We thank the Chief Wardens of KCA, MECA, LMNP, MFCA, QECA, in charges of UWEC, and ZIWA who timely provided the staff that undertook the survey. We thank the Ministry of Tourism Wildlife and Antiquities that seconded two staff (Mr. Tumusime Boaz and Mr. Baluku Joward) who participated in the survey. We take this opportunity to also thank the Chairman Luwero Wildlife Association, Mr. Mulwana Sam for his incite during the survey exercise. We are also grateful for the District Police Commander Luwero who made sure that our fire arms were kept well and in good working condition. Finally gratitude goes to the UWA field staff for their dedicated support during the entire field data collection exercise. The public relations they exhibited during the fieldwork helped enlighten the communities on their role in wildlife management. iii Summary The survey targeted medium to large mammal in Luwero district. It started with notification of the security and political leaders at the district and sub county level. Mobilization of resources and personnel, was then done to enable a smooth flow of the exercise. The staff who participated in the survey were drawn from the different UWA protected areas of Uganda. The survey crew camped in Luwero town for easy accessibility to the different transects in survey zone. The survey team was trained on the use of field equipment and the general ground survey procedures. The survey team was divided into 8 groups comprising of UWA staff and local communities from sub counties of Luwero. A total of 90 transects were traversed during the data collection period. During the exercise, three wardens were attached to administer the data collection thereby ensuring that good quality data was being collected. This helped to train the participants in collecting quality data hence continually building a reliable ground survey team for UWA. In Luwero district, the wild animal population have significantly reduced due to land use change and poaching activities. Animals were sighted but in very low numbers and these included; bushbucks, vervet monkeys, and duikers. Poaching for wild meat in the area was evident through arrests made during the exercise. There was notable land use change in the district were subsistence farmland increased by 22 percent from what it used to be in year 2005. This increase was as per 2015 and in the survey year, 2017, it could have doubled. Bushland vegetation has also substantially reduced from its original status of 2005. It’s therefore noticeable that charcoal burning and land conversion for agriculture have caused habitat alteration of the area. All the areas have heavy agriculture activities and settlement especially Kikyusa and Zirobwe where animals have completely disappeared either through hunting of shifting due to loss of habitat. It is definite that the sport hunting activity cannot go on in Luwero district due to the alternate land use activities by the land owners. iv CHAPTER 1 Survey of Wild Animals in Luwero District Introduction Luwero District is found in Central Uganda, bordered by Nakasongola District to the north, Kayunga District to the east, Mukono District to the southeast, Wakiso District to the south, and Nakaseke District to the west (Figure 1.1). Luwero district covers an area of approximately 2,217 square kilometers. Luwero District is divided into thirteen (13) administrative units Bombo town council , Luwero town council , Wobulenzi town council, and sub counties of Bamunanika, Kalagala, Kamira, Kikyusa, Zirobwe, Butuntumula, Katikamu, Luwero, Makulubita, and Nyimbwa (Figure 1.1). Of the 13 administrative units, only four (04) Butuntumula, Kamira, Kikyusa and Zirobwe sub counties (Figure 1.2) were viable for wildlife conservation due to the then suitable vegetation. Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA) has the statutory obligation to manage and conserve wildlife outside Protected Areas for the benefit of all the stakeholders and the local communities. UWA therefore revived management of wildlife outside protected areas and one such area was Luwero District. The concessionaire who took management of this area has one of

It primarily focuses on how farmers structure, maintain and enforce their labour relationships during crop farming. The study is based on semi-structured interviews of twenty households and unstructured interviews with representatives of farmers associations. These interviews show that other than household labour, the other common labour arrangements in the village include farm work sharing, labour exchanges and casual wage labour. Farm work sharing and labour exchanges involve farmers temporarily pooling their labour into work groups to complete tasks such as planting, weeding or harvesting crops on members’ farms in succession. This is done under strict rules and rewarded with ‘good’ beer and food. Against this background, the study asks what institutions really are, why they matter and what we can learn about them. Literature suggests that institutions influence labour transactions by their effects on transaction costs and the protection of contractual rights. However, literature does not suggest which institutions are best for agricultural labour transactions.

    The Development study on water resources development and management for Lake Kyoga Basin Final Report -Supporting- Chapter 4 Hydrogeology CHAPTER 4 HYDROGEOLOGY 4.1 Collection of Existing Data Existing data about hydrogeology managed by Directorate of Water Resources Management (DWRM) are Groundwater Database, Mapping Project data, and Groundwater Monitoring data. Others are the MIS database which is water supply facilities database managed by Directorate of Water Development, including the items of location, water source, functionality, and so on. 4.1.1 National Groundwater Database (NGWDB) This database was established by DWRM with contracting to a local consultant in 2000. DWRM had been compiled database based on the “Borehole Completion Report” which is submitted by drilling company after completion of drilling. In 1990s, it was managed by database software on MS-DOS, and before 1990s, it was borehole ledger described on paper book. Now it was compiled by Microsoft Access database management software on the Windows base again. Figure 4-1 shows the initial display of the database. The database has been input the data based on the completion report submitted by drilling company every year. It is including the well specification, geological information, pumping test data, water quality test result, and so on. This database is very sophisticated. DWRM gave to the study team the Source: DWRM data which are related to the Lake Figure 4-1 Initial Display of National Groundwater Database Kyoga Basin. In the obtained data, the number of data which described the registered well number is 11,880, the number of data which described the well construction information is 9,672, the number of data which described the hydrogeological information is 5,902, the number of data which described the pump information is 1,095, and the number of data which described the water quality is 2,293.

Investments in key human development areas have reaped benefits in poverty reduction, and seen some improvements on a range of socio-economic indicators: but is everyone benefiting? Ugandan women and girls have partially benefited from these trends. New laws and measures to protect and promote women’s economic, political and human rights have been accompanied by impressive reductions in gender gaps in primary and secondary education and greater female political participation. Yet, wide gender gaps and inequalities remain, including in control of assets, employment and health. Economic development may have improved the status quo of women in Uganda, but full equality with men remains a distant reality. Tackling the discriminatory social norms that drive such gender inequalities and ensuring that women can equally benefit from Uganda’s development were twin objectives of this first in-depth country study of the OECD Social Institutions and Gender Index (SIGI).
