Governance and livelihoods in Uganda's oil-rich Albertine Graben

This study was commissioned by International Alert and the Democratic Governance Facility in March 2012. It was carried out in the Albertine Graben, where oil exploration activities are ongoing. The study was conducted within the framework of the Harnessing the Potential of Oil to Contribute to Peace and Development in Uganda project, which is currently being implemented by International Alert and its partners. The main objective of the survey was to establish baseline data needed to measure the degree and quality of change in the livelihoods of the communities where oil exploration is taking place.
