Abstract
In February and March 2016, Uganda will hold its general elections where eligible
citizens will elect their next set of leaders including the President, Members
of Parliament, LC Chairpersons and councillors at various levels. The elected
leaders will serve for a term of five years. The 2016 Uganda general elections
are taking place at a time when the Environment and Natural Resources (ENR)
Sector is facing enormous challenges that threaten to substantially reduce their
contribution to national growth, development, poverty reduction and peoples’
welfare. It is therefore important that political parties and other actors vying for
power in the 2016 general elections prioritize and effectively address ENR issues
in their manifestoes.
