Charcoal burning is a vice that is contributing to climate change, yet it is an activity that is supporting a chain of people ranging from charcoal burners to the households that use charcoal as the main source of energy for cooking. Majority of Ugandans depend on charcoal for a livelihood and for cooking. In the West Nile region of Uganda, the Northern part of Uganda and parts of North East of the country, there much charcoal burning and charcoal business. These areas have had a lot of trees and forests from which charcoal is burnt. Traders in charcoal go all the way from urban centers to the said areas to deal in charcoal business. This has since been banned through the executive orders of president Yoweri Museveni-President of the Republic of Uganda, which has put the whole chain in a dare situation of poverty and suffering. Therefore, the government of Denmark is supporting Makerere University in Uganda together with the University of Copen Hagen, to research the implications.

The story is about how Rangelands, also commonly referred to as cattle corridor in Uganda, have experienced severe impacts of climate change that has led them to lose their animals like cattle, goats and sheep. Additionally, there has been persistent hunger and famine in these areas as production of food visa-av-viz grazing is challenge. Now, the Buginya Zonal Agriculture Research Organization based in Buginyanya in the mountainous Elgon region of Uganda, is being supported by the Food and Agriculture Organization to train the animal keepers on how they can raise animals as well as grow food. This however, requires rejuvenating their land through raising trees on their rang-lands. They have appreciated the approach and are now through the support given, they are raising fruit trees and other tree species as a way of improving the land. So, some selected districts of Kamuli, Buyende in Busoga and Kaberamaido, Katakwi and Serere in Teso are benefiting from this project.

The story is about how Busoga region in Eastern Uganda is affected by climate change as a result of massive deforestation which is contributing land degradation, bringing about heat waves and flooding. More to this, in the Busoga region, there is much Sugarcane growing which experts are saying will continue affecting the land which will lead to lack of sustainable livelihoods. Government is working hand in hand with non-governmental organizations to retore land in the region through planting of trees. One of the organizations championing tree planting in the region is “Acre Fund-Uganda” that targets smallholder farmers in the region who have at least one Acre of land, who are given free tree seedlings of different species to grow on the pieces of land together with other crops. The impact created now is that the farmers who are targeted are realizing the benefits out of planting the trees.

The audio story that aired on Uganda Broadcasting Corporation (UBC) Radio airwaves, alludes to the fact that Uganda as a country, experiences a lot diseases which newly emerge and those that re-emerge. These are zoonotic in nature; infecting both animals and human beings. These include Rabies, Marburg, Ebola and Anthrax. Health experts, government and civil society organizations drawn from the health sector, environment sector and wildlife sector termed as “One Health”, have jointly decided to deal with the diseases. However, there has been lack of a policy to guide them on how to work better. Therefore, Makerere University’s College of Veterinary Medicine, Animal Resources and Biosecurity has been mandated by government to capacitate the stakeholders on One Health policy. The policy is aimed at guiding all the stakeholders implementing One Health Approach not only in Uganda, but in other regions of Africa where the project on capacitating is being implemented.
