  • Sustainable Utilisation of Energy and Biodiversity Resources for Wealth Creation and Development’, 10–13 March 2009, Kampala, Uganda
    International Roundtable on ‘Sustainable Utilisation of Energy and Biodiversity Resources for Wealth Creation and Development’, 10–13 March 2009, Kampala, Uganda. Introduction The increasing population pressure and demand for a better life style have necessitated a need for greater use of energy. This has resulted in mounting pressure on the use of available resources which is now mostly met by fossil fuels. The rate of energy consumption is much higher than it was ever before and the demand is on increase. There is a negative balance between source depletion and replenishment by natural processes. This has also resulted in uncontrollable rise in pollution due to air, water, soil and noise besides electro-pollution, causing the very survival of life difficult on Planet Earth. An increase in the level of carbon dioxide, possibly causing a temperature rise leading to global warming and subsequent melting of glaciers culminating into climate change is a phenomenon of utmost concern. This has serious economic and social implications. Climate change linked to emissions is then about limiting growth, and also sharing growth among nations which has its economic overtones. The emerging scenario has led to a tremendous pressure on survival of species type (both plants and animals). The number of such species is registering a significant decline, thereby posing a serious threat to the sustainability of ecosystem itself. A demand for green energy is understood but the quantum and nature of its exploitation remains to be settled. Solar, the ultimate source of energy is now widely discussed, though increase in its efficiency usage is still a matter of continued investigation.

  • The Evolution of Town Planning Ideas, Plans and Their Implementation in Kampala City 1903-2004
    School of Built Environment, CEDAT Makerere University, Kampala, Uganda and School of Architecture and the Built Environment Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden The Evolution of Town Planning Ideas, Plans and their Implementation in Kampala City 1903-2004 Fredrick Omolo-Okalebo Doctoral Thesis in Infrastructure, Planning and Implementation Stockholm 2011 i ABSTRACT Title: Evolution of Town Planning Ideas, Plans and their Implementation in Kampala City 1903-2004 Through a descriptive and exploratory approach, and by review and deduction of archival and documentary resources, supplemented by empirical evidence from case studies, this thesis traces, analyses and describes the historic trajectory of planning events in Kampala City, Uganda, since the inception of modern town planning in 1903, and runs through the various planning episodes of 1912, 1919, 1930, 1951, 1972 and 1994. The planning ideas at interplay in each planning period and their expression in planning schemes vis-à-vis spatial outcomes form the major focus. The study results show the existence of two distinct landscapes; Mengo for the Native Baganda peoples and Kampala for the Europeans, a dualism that existed for much of the period before 1968. Modern town planning was particularly applied to the colonial city while the native city grew with little attempts to planning. Four main ideas are identified as having informed planning and transformed Kampala – first, the utopian ideals of the century; secondly, “the mosquito theory” and the general health concern and fear of catching „native‟ diseases – malaria and plague; thirdly, racial segregation and fourth, an influx of migrant labour into Kampala City, and attempts to meet an expanding urban need in the immediate post war years and after independence in 1962 saw the transfer and/or the transposition of the modernist and in particular, of the new towns planning ideas – which were particularly expressed in the plans of 1963-1968 by the United Nations Planning Mission.

  • Two Cities in One: the Genesis, Planning and Transformation of Kampala City 1900-1968
    URBAN TRANSFORMATION: CONTROVERSIES, CONTRASTS and CHALLENGES Two Cities in One: The Genesis, Planning and Transformation of Kampala City 1900-1968 Fredrick Omolo-Okalebo School of Architecture and the Built Environment, Division of Urban and Regional Planning, KTH, Drottning Kristinas väg 30, SE-100 44 Stockholm, Sweden E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT The system of indirect rule in Uganda, like most British colonies was made to ensure that the ‘Native Societies’ would not be polluted by the ‘sophistication’ of European based trade, mining and administrative urban centres. Therefore, for several years there existed two worlds in one, with limited contact and little understanding of each other – the world of the European and the world of the African – the ‘Native’, each with their planning ideologies and culture. Planning as an activity was technical and so was a domain of a few technocrats, mainly consultants from the United Kingdom who used planning as a tool to further the manipulation of space as a means of fostering hegemony and thus the alienation of native residents from the modern urban environment. Through review and deduction of archival and documentary resources, this paper focuses on how the city has transformed over time and the planning Ideas at play since the evolution of territorial and administrative dualism in the late 19th century, an aspect that for a long time has remained almost unstudied. INTRODUCTION This paper reviews the role of planning Ideas in the transformation of Kampala city from pre-independence and disects the concept of „two cities in one‟, as the coexistence of modern and traditional landscapes within a single geographical space, resulting from imperialist policies of the nineteenth century.

  • Political Theologies in Late Colonial Buganda
    POLITICAL THEOLOGIES IN LATE COLONIAL BUGANDA Jonathon L. Earle Selwyn College University of Cambridge This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2012 Preface This dissertation is the result of my own work and includes nothing which is the outcome of work done in collaboration except where specifically indicated in the text. It does not exceed the limit of 80,000 words set by the Degree Committee of the Faculty of History. i Abstract This thesis is an intellectual history of political debate in colonial Buganda. It is a history of how competing actors engaged differently in polemical space informed by conflicting histories, varying religious allegiances and dissimilar texts. Methodologically, biography is used to explore three interdependent stories. First, it is employed to explore local variance within Buganda’s shifting discursive landscape throughout the longue durée. Second, it is used to investigate the ways that disparate actors and their respective communities used sacred text, theology and religious experience differently to reshape local discourse and to re-imagine Buganda on the eve of independence. Finally, by incorporating recent developments in the field of global intellectual history, biography is used to reconceptualise Buganda’s late colonial past globally. Due to its immense source base, Buganda provides an excellent case study for writing intellectual biography. From the late nineteenth century, Buganda’s increasingly literate population generated an extensive corpus of clan and kingdom histories, political treatises, religious writings and personal memoirs. As Buganda’s monarchy was renegotiated throughout decolonisation, her activists—working from different angles— engaged in heated debate and protest.
