Uganda - Post-Conflict Land Policy and Administration Options : The Case of Northern Uganda
This is the second part of land studies
on Northern Uganda designed to inform the Peace, Recovery
and Development Plan (PRDP). This second part of the study,
undertaken during the second half of 2007 in the Lango and
Acholi regions, builds on the first phase conducted in 2006
in the Teso region. This second study has been designed to
present a more quantitative analysis of trends on disputes
and claims on land before displacement, during displacement
and on return of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in the
greater conflict areas of Acholi and Lango regions. The
study found that the return from IDP camps to original homes
was progressing with varied results tied to the length of
time spent in the camps, from 5 to 15 years. About 85
percent of the respondents had experienced threats to tenure
security, and many felt these threats were significant.
Misgivings exist about the Central Government's
intentions towards land. Disputes mainly occurred on land
abandoned upon displacement, with border disputes being the
most prevalent. The study also looked into land
administration, land titling and registration, extremely
vulnerable individuals, and legal loopholes. It gives
several recommendations, both immediate and long term
actions, which can be incorporated and implemented as part
of the PRDP.
