Evaluative report on CIFOR - ICRAF programming with refugees and hosts in northwestern Uganda

Export citation

The following evaluative report provides insight on the outcomes of an agroforestry programme implemented by CIFOR-ICRAF with refugees and hosts in two refugee settlements within the West Nile subregion of Uganda. The programme mission sits squarely at the intersection of multiple global challenges: mass refugee displacement, energy access, malnutrition, deforestation and biodiversity loss. By introducing the practice of agroforestry, or the intentional integration of trees with livestock and/or crops, the programme addresses significant human welfare challenges within the refugee-hosting context. Simultaneously, the programme recognizes the need to protect and enhance the natural resources upon which refugee and host livelihoods and well-being depend.
