Nyamunuka and the migratory white-winged terns on a Hippo Queen Elizabeth Protected Area ii Approval The Uganda Wildlife Authority Board of Trustees approved this General Management Plan for implementation at its sitting of 26th July 2012. Mr. Benjamin Otto Dr. Andrew G Seguy Chairman, Board of Trustees Executive Director Uganda Wildlife Authority Uganda Wildlife Authority Queen Elizabeth Protected Area iii FOREWORD Preparation of General Management Plans (GMPs) for Protected Areas is a statutory requirement. Uganda Wildlife Authority recognizes the importance of planning as a management tool and is systematically preparing GMPs for all her Protected Areas (PA’s) to realize their potential in biodiversity conservation, tourism development and contribute towards poverty reduction. This General Management Plan is therefore aimed at providing Queen Elizabeth Protected Area with guidance towards sustainable management of the natural ecosystems for their proper functioning in order to provide the services. The plan will also ensure proper development of both administrative and tourism infrastructure and facilities in order to realize the full potential of Queen Elizabeth Protected Area in contributing to the development given the fact that tourism is the engine of economic growth of this country. The mission of Uganda Wildlife Authority is to “conserve, economically develop and sustainably manage the wildlife and Protected Areas of Uganda in partnership with neighbouring communities and other stakeholders for the benefit of the people of Uganda and the global community”. Accordingly, GMPs for wildlife protected areas are prepared with full stakeholder participation. The preparation of this plan was through a multidisciplinary and consultative approach involving various stakeholders at community, district, national and regional levels to ensure that all relevant issues were adequately addressed. The Planning Team that prepared this GMP was composed of UWA staff as well as other stakeholders from the local governments of the 7 districts in which QEPA falls i.e Mitooma, Rubirizi (formely in Bushenyi district), Kasese Kamwenge, Ibanda, Kanungu and Rukungiri. Consultations were held with resource user groups, local community leaders, district leaders, the tourism stakeholders, researchers and private sector representatives. The UWA Board of Trustees after careful review has also endorsed the implementation of this plan by their approval at their sitting on 26th July 2012 at UWA headquarters. This plan that is therefore a product of wide consultations will enjoy the support of all stakeholders, to enhance the achievement of conservation and management objectives of Queen Elizabeth Protected Area for the benefit and enjoyment of the present and future generations. It is therefore with great pleasure that I now entrust the Conservation Area Manager of Queen Elizabeth Conservation Area, with the authority to implement this General Management Plan. EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR UGANDA WILDLIFE AUTHORITY Queen Elizabeth Protected Area iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Uganda Wildlife Authority acknowledges the Government of Norway through the Oil for Development project for providing all the financial support to the preparation of this General Management Plan (GMP).

In this General Management Plan (GMP), the protected area comprising Queen Elizabeth National Park, Kyambura Wildlife Reserve and Kigezi Wildlife Reserve is referred to as Queen Elizabeth Protected Area (QEPA). Queen Elizabeth is part of an extensive transboundary system that includes Kibale National Park to the northeast and Rwenzori Mountains National Park to the northwest. QEPA is also contiguous with the Parc National des Virunga (Virunga National Park) in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Together these two protected areas completely encircle Lake Edward. This planning effort includes the Park (1978 km2), Kyambura Wildlife Reserve (157 km2), and Kigezi Wildlife Reserve (330km2). QEPA falls within 7 District administrations of Kamwenge, Ibanda, Kasese, Rubirizi, Mitoma, Kanungu and Rukungiri. QEPA’s Maramagambo Forest is also classified as a Forest Reserve and is jointly managed by the Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA) and the National Forestry Authority (NFA). Lakes

Abstract Water as it flows through a town is continuously affected and changed by social relations of power and vice-versa. In the course of its flow, it always benefits some, while depriving, or even in some cases harming others. The issues concerning distribution of water are closely intertwined with the distribution of risks, at the crux of which are questions related to how decisions related to water allocation and distribution are made.

This report, for the first time, coincides with the Government financial year. 2. From the financial point of view the year has again been one of considerable difficulty since, as a result of the Economy Commission Report, it was necessary to restrict the money available for recurrent expenditure to the same level as the previous year. Although an additional sum was available to cover normal increases in salaries, the general effect was that many economies had to in all be made grades of staff; some important vacancies could not be filled, and expansion was out of the question.
