| dc.description.abstract | The Research evaluated the adequacy of the existing legal frame work for the protection of wetlands,the rationale for the conservation of wetlands and the mechanisms that are put in place to conserve the wetland resources.The case study makes use of qualitative research methods to make a critical analysis of wetland policies in Kampala capital city authority.The research was conducted tlu·ough legal policy analysis,literature review and interviews with the stake holders such as NEMA,wetland Inspection Department,KCCA and locals. Although the protection of Kampala's wetlands is an important priority for many,increased population,industrialistion,and conflict of interest has often led to the misuse of the wetlands ,the principle of sustainable development cannot only tlu·ive unless the government is committed with strict measures to protect many wetlands in Uganda,it is unrealistic that the citizens always expect NEMA to enforce the law ,it should be an individual responsibility to every citizen in Uganda to protect the wetlands echo system. Conclusively,there are many challenges to the legal frame works for the protection of wetlands in Uganda which has led to long term problems as a result of which continued reclaiming of wetlands has led to flooding that anchored the researcher's mind to come up with several recommendations to restore wetlands in city by empowering the stakeholders in the protection of the wetlands to live in union with their surroundings so as to benefit the present and also preserve them for future generations equitably. | en_US |
