Abstract
Land tenure is under transition in Uganda. Policy interventions, population growth, oil discoveries and land acquisitions from national and international investors contribute to this transition. While the perception of tenure security is currently widespread among land holders, this may change. If development cooperation wishes to contribute to maintaining, deepening and widening the widespread perception of tenure security, partial and unsustained interventions should be avoided as they are prone to elite capture and tend to induce, rather than reduce, tenure insecurity
