A newly released report by the Economic Governance Initiative (EGI) and the Center for Research and Innovation (CRI) exposes alarming human rights violations against community members in Uganda’s Albertine Region. From forced land evictions and intimidation to loss of livelihoods and restricted civic space, this report sheds light on the harsh realities faced by communities living in resource-rich areas.

In this podcast episode, we unpack the key findings of the report, amplify the voices of affected communities, and examine the role of government institutions, investors, and duty bearers. We also explore pathways toward justice, accountability, and community-led development in the Albertine Graben.
