Analysis of past and projected future land use change and its impact on sediment fluxes in the Rwizi catchment
REFNo: NS147ES

. Firstly, the project aims at strengthening the academic research capacity at the universities of Mbarara and Gulu (Uganda) by means of the training of two PhD-researchers and several postdoctoral researchers in the field of integrated watershed management. Secondly, the project will develop fundamental research on the, hitherto largely overlooked, coupling between demographic developments on the one hand, and the degradation of soil and water resources on the other hand. Thirdly, the results from this fundamental research will be translated into landscape transformation models that will allow land managers and policymakers to evaluate alternative devel-opment pathways for the catchment.
