One of the aims of the RLP is to provide easily accessible information on forced migration, justice, conflict, or other related issues on Uganda and the wider region to all interested stakeholders, which may be accessed from these pages. These materials are available freely so as to reach the widest possible audience. While our published material may be somewhat limited to areas we have been able to investigate in depth, you are also welcome to contact us or visit our offices, particularly the Information Centre, and we will do our best to assist you on specific questions. However, due to busy schedules and relative shortage of staff, we regret that your questions may not be answered immediately.

These pages are divided into five broad categories:

  1. Working Papers
    Our working paper series presents in depth analyses of specific situations that have been investigated or recorded by RLP research trips. These working papers attempt to straddle a careful balance between being academically rigorous yet highly accessible to non-specialists, bearing in the mind the difficulties and risks of conducting research in often volatile regions.
  2. Seminars & Speeches
    The RLP has held regular seminars over the years, and we have made available a selection of some of our seminars. Occasionally, RLP staff have also given speeches at conferences and workshops, and where the individual has agreed to making their speech available, we are able to provide them to you.
  3. Other Reports
    These are other RLP-produced materials that do not fit into the above categories. These may include special reports produced under specific consultancies, briefing notes that represent immediate but preliminary observations from the field, articles or letters sent to the national newspapers, or advocacy briefs that attempt to bring attention to specific problems.
  4. Legal Resources
    We have attempted to make legal references of relevance to forced migration and justice available. These may include laws, acts, policies, and drafts in the public domain, that all interested stakeholders should have easy access to, but unfortunately is not often the case.
  5. Archive
    Our archive represents older material that may not be of as immediate relevance as other issues, or else featuring issues that have been resolved. They have been left available for academic reference.

Note:
Not all research that has been conducted over the years is publicly available, due to the specific terms of reference of certain donors. Feel free to inquire with us on areas that may not be covered in the above sections, but that relate to forced migration in Uganda. While we may not be able to provide you with papers, we have staff with expertise in additional areas.
