Uganda may need to focus the minds of wetland users to modern farming if the issues of wetland degradations are to be curbed, a Senior Government Official has observed. Borrowing lessons from the current Presidential Initiative to restore wetlands with support from the Government of Uganda (GoU), Green Climate Fund (GCF) and United Nations Development Program (UNDP), the Resident District Commissioner (RDC) Pallisa district, Mr Kyeyune Ssenyonjo noted that building community resilience through provision of livelihoods may help to avert pressures on wetlands.
