S5 Geography Paper 3: Desertification in Uganda by Obbo Peter

These geography notes by Obbo Peter examine desertification in Uganda through examples from northeastern Uganda, the central region, the Rift Valley and the Ankole–Masaka dry corridor. They outline human activities and physical conditions associated with desertification, including vegetation clearance, farming practices, dry winds and drought. The notes also discuss consequences for water supplies, biodiversity, food production and livelihoods. A concluding revision question asks learners to assess the contribution of human activities, with guidance on structuring an answer and supporting explanations with named locations and a sketch map.
