Abstract

The study explores the challenges faced by Rwandan Diaspora migrants in Uganda in
securing land rights, highlighting historical discrimination and complexities within
Uganda's land tenure systems. It uses demographic data from the 2002 Uganda Population
and Housing Census to reveal that Rwandese migrants are primarily involved in crop
farming, challenging stereotypes about their primary occupations. The study emphasizes
the link between land access, development, and poverty reduction, emphasizing the need
for targeted interventions to protect vulnerable groups' land rights. It concludes by urging
policymakers to adopt inclusive strategies that consider the unique circumstances of
diverse communities within Uganda, emphasizing the need for targeted interventions to
protect vulnerable groups' land rights.
