Using individual and county-level data, we document large causal effects on trust and ethnic identity of an exogenous outburst of ethnic conflicts in 2002–2005. We exploit two waves of survey data from Afrobarometer (Round 4 Afrobarometer Survey in Uganda, 2000, 2008), including information on socioeconomic characteristics at the individ- ual level, and geo-referenced measures of fighting events from ACLED.

  • 1. Introduction
    1. INTRODUCTION 1. INTRODUCTION 1-1 Background Decentralisation reforms are currently ongoing in the majority of developing countries. The nature of decentralisation reforms vary greatly - ranging from mundane technical adjustments of the public administration largely in the form of deconcentration to radical redistribution of political power between central governments and relatively autonomous Local Governments (LGs). Decentralisation reforms hold many promises - including local level democratisation and possibly improved service delivery for the poor. However, effective implementation often lacks behind rhetoric and the effective delivery of promises also depends on a range of preconditions and the country specific context for reforms. In several countries it can be observed that decentralisation reforms are pursued in an uneven manner - some elements of the Government may wish to undertake substantial reforms - other elements will intentionally or unintentionally counter such reforms. Several different forms of decentralisation - foremost elements of devolution, deconcentration and delegation may be undertaken in either a mutually supporting or contradictory manner. Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) recognises that its development assistance at the local level generally and specifically within key sectors that have been decentralised will benefit from a better understanding of the nature of decentralisation in the countries where it works. The present study on local level service delivery, decentralisation and governance in East Africa is undertaken with this in mind. The study is primarily undertaken with a broad analytical objective in mind and is not specifically undertaken as part of a programme formulation although future JICA interventions in East Africa are intended to be informed by the study. 1-2 Objective of the Study The specific objectives of the study are: 1.

    Third RUFORUM Biennial Meeting 24 - 28 September 2012, Entebbe, Uganda Research Application Summary Dissemination of agricultural technologies: A new approach for Uganda Ogwal Kasimiro, Okello, J., Wakulira, M., Kiyini, R., Mwebaze, M. & Yiga, D. National Agricultural Advisory Services (NAADS) Secretariat, P.O. Box 25235, Kampala, Uganda Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Uganda with an estimated current population of 34 million has had many approaches to agricultural extension service delivery but has not realised its potential level of production and productivity in agriculture. One key gap in agricultural transformation has been the weak linkage between farmers, extension workers and research for effective technology transfer. The Government of Uganda in the National Development plan 2011/2015 identified this gap and a five year project, the Agricultural Technology and Agri-business Advisory Services (ATAAS) was formulated. The ATAAS project with five (5) components is being implemented by the National Agricultural Research Organisation (NARO) and National Agricultural Advisory Services (NAADS) which are agencies of the Ministry of Agriculture, Animal Industry and Fisheries (MAAIF). Within the first year of implementation of ATAAS, stakeholders priorities were generated, a number of adaptive research trials set in response to stakeholders needs, multiplication of planting materials undertaken and appropriate Multi-stakeholders Innovations Platforms (MSIPs) established. With support from all stakeholders and effective monitoring and evaluation conducted, ATAAS is expected to transform the agricultural sector of Uganda. However, there is need to have stronger farmer, extension and research linkages for effective technology dissemination. Responsive adaptive research trials should be established with farmers actively participating and extension workers fully guided for better results.

Progress and outputs Executive summary - Provide essential information about the progress and the outputs produced during the reporting period of the project. Write in a straightforward, clear and concise narrative style. Introduction Indigenous chicken (IC) genetic resources contribution to food security, income and livelihoods to rural households cannot be overemphasised in the eastern African region and beyond. The type of production system they are kept in is characterized by low inputs and high disease incidences, leading to low productivity. In some areas harsh climatic conditions are additional challenges to the indigenous chickens. Exotic germplasm developed from a few genetic lines is increasingly being used in many areas in an endeavour to improve productivity.
