The Karamoja region faces compounding challenges driven by climate change, including rising temperatures, erratic rainfall, and prolonged droughts. These environmental stresses have intensified competition over scarce pastoral resources such as water points and grazing lands, which together with a loss in governance structure may lead to increased conflict among local communities. In response, this project sought to enhance climate resilience and peacebuilding efforts by leveraging Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and remote sensing technologies to map critical pastoral resources and support sustainable, datadriven decision-making.
