Zusammenfassung
The publication highlights the debate on Ugandas legal and policy framework concerning land, the analysis of different land tenure systems, access to land, and the impact on food security in Uganda. It also includes policy recommendations to government on the land question as well as agricultural transformation.
Some authors note that women need to obtain equal property and land rights because they are fundamental to womens economic security and empowerment, social and legal status and sometimes their survival. They also come with improvement in self-esteem, confidence, better political relationships, security and dignity.
Lastly the publication discusses whether food security is best attained when farmers are able to have enough cash, by growing cash crops, to purchase food or whether they should grow enough food in their gardens to cater for their own food requirements.
