Abstract
Environmental Justice Movements in Resource-Rich Ugandan Communities The study employs a qualitative research approach to gather data from interviews with community leaders, activists, and government officials. Focus groups were also conducted to understand the perspectives of different stakeholders. The study underscores the need for more inclusive decision-making processes that consider local voices in resource management policies to address environmental injustices effectively. Governments and international organizations should prioritise support for community-led initiatives, including financial assistance and training on sustainable development practices.
