Abstract

This district report represents the first output of the Phase I study of the capacity of poor people to access sustainable rural non-farm employment (RNFE) and livelihood opportunities in Uganda. The purpose of the research, implemented by the Natural Resources Institute of the UK, and funded by the British Government Department for International Development (DFID) under a collaborative agreement with the World Bank, is to inform and assist the Government of Uganda, DFID and the WB in formulating pro-poor RNFE policies. The project has two main outputs: 1. Understanding the factors that condition access to rural non-farm employment for the poor, and 2. Mechanisms for integrating these research results into relevant policy processes.
