Land rights activism and the struggle for power: Overlapping of the non-profit sector and the political sphere in Uganda

Résumé

This paper is about politics in Western Uganda and the multiple ways it relates to organizations of activists working on human rights issues. It draws examples from a local organization dealing with illegal expropriations of land in the region. As land grabbing is pervading in Ugandan society, land rights defenders deal with actors from a large sociological spectrum, from poor farmers to top-level politicians. Advocating human rights against land grabbing entices exposure and risks.
