Farms, Cities and Good Fortune - Assessing Poverty Reduction in Uganda from 2006 to 2013
Rapports et recherchesRessources et Outils d'entraînementseptembre, 2016Ouganda, AfriqueUganda’s progress in reducing poverty from 1993 to 2006 is a remarkable story of success that has been well told. The narrative of Uganda’s continued, albeit it slightly slower, progress in reducing poverty since 2006 is less familiar. This was a period in which growth slowed as the gains from reforms years earlier had been fully realized, and weak infrastructure and increasing corruption increasingly constrained private sector competitiveness (World Bank 2015). This report examines Uganda’s progress in reducing poverty, with a specific focus on the period 2006 to 2013.

A New Landscape?
Rapports et recherchesArticles et Livresoctobre, 2016Nigéria, Ouganda, République-Unie de Tanzanie, Éthiopie, Niger, Malawi, Afrique sub-saharienne, AfriqueWhile scholars long recognized the importance of land markets as a key driver of rural non-farm development and transformation in rural areas, evidence on the extent of their operation and the nature of participants remains limited. We use household data from 6 countries to show that there is great potential for such markets to increase productivity and equalize factor ratios. While rental markets transfer land to land-poor and labor-rich producers, their operation and thus impact may be constrained by policy restrictions.
