Abstract
In Uganda the need for and justification of population resettlement has risen from a number of aspects related to the country’s economic setting. The existence of agricultural land of high potential but low population densities; settlement on land cleared of tse tse infestation as a mechanism to prevent resurgence of the fly; forced or persuaded movement of people from areas of high population densities.
