The GLA programme in Uganda focuses on the Kalangala landscape (especially on Bugala and Buvuma islands) because the forests in this landscape are seriously affected or under threat of degradation due to the introduction and expansion of oil palm plantations. Forest degradation in Kalangala is further exacerbated by collection of biomass fuel and logging for home use, construction and trade. Large oil palm plantations further lead to lake degradation due to erosion, water pollution due to use of fertilizers coupled with the disrespect for lake buffers, food scarcity due to commercialized mono-cropping of oil palm, alterations of ecosystem functioning and climate change impacts.
