In areas under customary land tenure systems, land registration is often overlooked. However, obtaining a Certificate of Customary Ownership (CCO) strengthens tenure security and enables access to financial services, fostering economic empowerment.

Through our collaborative intervention with @ministry_lands, and with support from @OxfaminUganda, we facilitated households in the districts of Arua and Zombo to register their land and acquire CCOs, enabling them to access financing for business development.

Why should it be a risk for women to own land because our national laws bestow this to all citizens of Uganda? @flaviakalule

On Day two of the real estate bill consultative workshop, Ms. Peace Nabakembo, the Principal Policy Analyst at @ministry_lands , explained the background and progress of Uganda’s Real Estate Bill (REB) during her recent presentation. She highlighted that the real estate sector contributes approximately 6.3% of the country’s GDP but faces numerous challenges. These include fraudulent property sales, speculative pricing, lack of consumer protection, and unprofessional practices. She emphasized that these issues create mistrust and make the sector vulnerable to unscrupulous activities.

Ms. Nabakembo stated that a Regulatory Impact Assessment (RIA) was carried out to evaluate possible policy solutions for addressing these challenges. She revealed that introducing a new law and regulations was identified as the best option. This would establish a standardized framework, protect consumers, create a national database of agents and developers, and introduce mechanisms to detect money laundering and terrorist financing in the sector.

She further noted that Cabinet approved principles for the Real Estate Bill in February 2023. These principles provide for the regulation of real estate practices, professionalization of the sector, and the development of dispute resolution mechanisms. Additionally, the bill aims to establish a structured skills training program and outline penalties for non-compliance.

Ms. Nabakembo informed the audience that a working group comprising government agencies, private sector stakeholders, and academics was formed to draft the bill. She mentioned that the draft had undergone reviews and revisions, incorporating feedback from stakeholder consultations. International benchmarking, particularly with Kenya, South Africa, and India, provided valuable insights that have been integrated into the draft.

In conclusion, Ms. Nabakembo underscored the urgency of regulating Uganda’s real estate sector. She explained that proper regulation would ensure sustainable development, enhance professionalism, and protect the interests of all actors involved. She called for collective effort to achieve these goals and support the country’s broader development objectives.
