Abstract: This literature review highlights land policy implementation in Uganda. Land is a highly emotive subject in Uganda as in other developing countries. The literature review deals with contextual and theoretical underpinnings. Contextually the Uganda National Land Policy (UNLP) addresses historical injustices, colonial mistakes and contemporary issues. Theoretically the systems theory is discussed together with the bottom up approach. This review captures the perceptions and attitudes of the people towards the policy. It probes the meaning of the policy to Ugandans. It also exposes the gaps, opportunities and challenges the policy presents. Lastly conclusions are made based on the relevant literature reviewed.
Keywords: Land rights, Land policy implementation, Uganda National Land Policy 2013, Local-central relations, Decentralisation.
