The 2013/2014 Annual work plan and Budget provides a great opportunity for social economic advancement of the people of Mukono District.

The program focused on collaborative casework which allowed for mentorship of public justice system officials, training and technical assistance, and addressing the cultural norms that allow for land theft in communities From the beginning of Project Empaanyi in 2012 to its completion in 2017, there was a significant reduction in the prevalence of land theft in Mukono County (nearly 50%), as well as a drop in attempted land theft (more than 50%), and a decrease in land theft with violence (37%). This study found an increase in knowledge among widows of their inheritance rights, and a significant increase to 21% of widows stating their intention to report land theft to police, from almost none in the baseline.
