主要民间组织,包括争取平等土地权的土著人组织
- The Uganda Land Alliance (ULA) is an non-governmental organization (NGO) founded in 1995 as a consortium of 37 national and international NGOs and institutions lobbying for pro-poor land laws. Among its activities, the ULA pursues lobbying and advocacy work on women’s access to land, women’s representation on the land bodies, the rights of tenants, the issue of the lost counties and customary land. After the new Land Law was enacted, the ULA started monitoring the implementation of policies and structures established by the Land Act to ensure that the new land institutions operate in a gender-sensitive manner.
- ULA has campaigned to have mandatory co-ownership for spouses and for spouse’s consensus on the transfer of land. It also runs a Land Rights Centre which carried out right advocacy and handled 54 individual cases on behalf of women and 31 cases on behalf of men (11).
