Summary
In Uganda many people poach because of human wildlife conflict or lack of income earning opportunities. Uganda Wildlife Authority has a community programme to address such problems, but it is hampered by weak capacity and limited HQ support. This project will pilot community engagement through park-level action plans ; and build UWA capacity to support the plans as a complement to law enforcement.
