Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uganda is a landlocked country located in East Africa. Its capital city is Kampala, and the official language is English. The country is bordered by Kenya to the east, Tanzania to the south, Rwanda to the southwest, South Sudan to the north, and the Democratic Republic of Congo to the west. Uganda’s population is estimated to be over 45 million with a diverse range of ethnic groups, religions, and cultures. The country is known for its national parks, including the famous Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park, which is home to almost half of the world's mountain gorilla population. Uganda has a rich history and was formerly a British colony until it gained independence in 1962. Since then, the country has faced a number of challenges, including political instability and upheavals, economic difficulties, and a rising population that has put pressure on natural resources. Despite these challenges, Uganda has made considerable progress in recent years, including reducing poverty levels, increasing access to education, and improving healthcare outcomes. The country’s economy is driven by agriculture, and key exports include coffee, tea, and tobacco. Uganda is also increasingly attracting foreign investment and has become a hub for technology innovation in the region.

Download or read book International Businesses and the Challenges of Poverty in the Developing World written by F. Bird and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-01-22 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in a globally interconnected but economically divided world where internationally linked businesses can play a significant role in helping and/or obstructing the development of impoverished countries. Through a series of case studies, this volume examines what can be learned, both positively and critically, from the experiences of selected internationally connected firms in Nigeria, Uganda, Ghana, Vietnam, Guyana, and the Nunavik region of northern Canada. This book begins with a set of reflections on the strategies firms might adopt so that they develop both their own assets as well as those of the areas in which they operate. A team of more than two dozen researchers from the developed and developing countries conducted the research on which the essays on this and subsequent volumes are based. Dr Frederick Bird from Concordia University in Montreal directed the overall research project.
Download or read book Museveni s Uganda written by Aili Mari Tripp and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Museveni's exercise of power has been replete with contradictions: steps toward political liberalization have been controlled in ways that, in fact, further centralize authority; and despite claims of relative peace and stability, Uganda has been plagued by two decades of brutal civil conflict. Exploring these paradoxes, Tripp focuses on the complex connections among Museveni's economic and political reforms, his wars in the north and in Congo, the key roles of international donors and the military, and the institutional changes that have defined his presidency. She highlights, as well, efforts by the judiciary, the legislature, the media, and civil society to check executive power. This is also a book about the semiauthoritarian regimes, like Uganda's, that characterize so many political systems in Africa. Tripp reflects analytically on the distinctiveness of this type of system -- and on its implications for civil society, institutional growth, and real economic development." -- Publisher description.

Download or read book Constitutional and Political History of Uganda From 1894 to Present written by W Kanyeihamba and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2010-12-20 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If the study of Uganda's politics and history is to be raised to a higher level of intellectual excellence, the past has indeed to be studied; so must the present; and even the Future must be studied. But and it is a strong "But," all this must be done with a greater degree of level-headedness, with more honesty, and with greater objectivity. Justice George Kanyeihamba's book is a welcome effort toward that end. His treatment comprises a mix of critical analyses of a Past spanning the years from the beginning of the Declaration of the Uganda Protectorate in 1894 to the exit of Obote and the end of his Second Regime of the 1980-1985, up to the Present. The author is an expert and specialist in constitutional matters and a native of Uganda who has lived through some of the crises and upheavals he has written about here.
Download or read book Conservation and Development in Uganda written by Chris Sandbrook and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-09-20 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uganda has extensive protected areas and iconic wildlife (including mountain gorillas), which exist within a complex social and political environment. In recent years Uganda has been seen as a test bed and model case study for numerous and varied approaches to address complex and connected conservation and development challenges. This volume reviews and assesses these initiatives, collecting new research and analyses both from emerging scholars and well-established academics in Uganda and around the globe. Approaches covered range from community-based conservation to the more recent proliferation of neoliberalised interventions based on markets and payments for ecosystem services. Drawing on insights from political ecology, human geography, institutional economics, and environmental science, the authors explore the challenges of operationalising truly sustainable forms of development in a country whose recent history is characterised by a highly volatile governance and development context. They highlight the stakes for vulnerable human populations in relation to of large and growing socioeconomic inequalities, as well as for Uganda’s rich, unique, and globally significant biodiversity. They illustrate the conflicts that occur between competing claims of conservation, agriculture, tourism, and the energy and mining industries. Crucially, the book draws out lessons that can be learned from the Ugandan experience for conservation and development practitioners and scholars around the world.

Download or read book Developmentality written by Jon Harald Sande Lie and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2015-09-01 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork within the World Bank and a Ugandan ministry, this book critically examines how the new aid architecture recasts aid relations as a partnership. While intended to alter an asymmetrical relationship by fostering greater recipient participation and ownership, this book demonstrates how donors still seek to retain control through other indirect and informal means. The concept of developmentality shows how the World Bank’s ability to steer a client’s behavior is disguised by the underlying ideas of partnership, ownership, and participation, which come with other instruments through which the Bank manipulates the aid recipient into aligning with its own policies and practices.
