The aim of this is that they are able to sustainably and productively manage their land building on local resources from their land and community.I have been resident in Uganda most of the last 25 years, working with church, international and local NGOs and intergovernmental organisations. My work has been centred in East Africa, but I have also taken assignments in Bangladesh, Burkina Faso and Niger.
