This story is just one example of conflicts over land rights which occur all the time, unfortunately. Coincidently, just as this story was brewing, my organization, IFPRI, was holding a conference in Entebbe on land rights. I'm sorry I didn't know of you before, or we would have invited you. You can find the press release here: http://www.ifpri.org/pressrel/2007/20070228.asp. We also have briefs and more information on land rights in Africa here: http://www.ifpri.org/media/20060518Land.asp

I would love to learn more from you especially on HIV/AIDS as you are based in Uganda which has done well in this area.
Online networks are great places to meet and discuss issues.
