Both qualitative and quantitative methods were used where 84 respondents were sampled in the study which included KCC officials, the wetland occupants, NEMA officials and the area district environmental officer. Out of the 84 only 46 respondents returned filled questionnaires and 20 were interviewed making a total of 66 respondents. The findings indicate that Kansanga wetland is highly encroached by the increasing population of Kampala City, urban development and urban human activities as the major threats to Kansanga wetland, greatly affecting the wetland's size, biodiversity, integrity and productivity. The study findings confirmed the disappearance of some of the species that formally existed in this wetland which included the sitatunga and the Typha sp (cat tails).The size of the wetland was also found to have been modified by 88% compared to 58% by NBS (2000) and the estimated current size under intact wetland vegetation is only 0.54 km 2 out of 4.54 km 2 of the original size. Among the major recommendations were that the government, NEMA, the lead or responsible ministry and other private conservation organisations should purchase plots from the wetland from the landlords who got leases before the Constitution (1995) and establish the entire wetland as wildlife refuge, sanctuary, or special conservation area. This will preserve the wetland in its natural state and protect it from destructive human development activities. Decentralisation of services to overcome the rural urban migration and promotion of contraceptive use to check the population growth among others. This can be done through the enactment and implementation of policies and laws, which address lfiP. issues revealed through this study.

According to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), “Continuous technological change and innovation are among the main determinants of productivity growth and as such are necessary conditions for the welfare of nations and regions” (2001). Low levels of scientific and technological development harm least developed countries, where the comparative cost of missing out on the benefits of STI is far higher than in the OECD, in profound ways (Farley et al, 2007). As the UNIDO (the United Nations Industrial Development Organization) Position Paper on Innovation Systems for Development states: In the face of the opportunities presented by globalization, and the multiple challenges arising from poverty and resource scarcity, the ability to innovate relates not just to the ability to survive but the ability to thrive. Innovation lies at the heart of peoples’, firms’, sectors’, and countries’ ability to cope with change (Farley et al, 2007).
