KURJ intends to bridge the gap between research and innovation within the University environment and to bring to fore a multidisciplinary university based journal that can be used for disseminating high quality and impactful publicationsItem Open Access Kabale University Interdisciplinary Research Journal (KURJ)(Kabale University, 2022) Siraje, Kaaya; George Stanley, KinyataInternationally, researchers and scientists are known for creating, sharing and utilizing information to further the body of knowledge in their disciplines. In a bid to continue promoting the research agenda, the Kabale University Interdisciplinary Research Journal (KURJ) as a platform for disseminating research findings, routinely accepts high quality original research articles, letters and commentaries on a wide range of disciplines including but not limited to education, social sciences, agriculture and environment sciences, economics and management sciences, medicine and the engineering sciences among others. The main aim of the Journal is to disseminate high quality and impactful publications that benefits society nationally and globally. The 3rd issue, volume 3 of the KURJ, is published with 8 papers which cover different issues of national, regional and global concern. The papers include: Reverse logistics and environmental sustainability in selected manufacturing entities in Kampala district, Uganda; Antiplasmodial compounds from Millettia dura; Resource mobilisation and allocation priorities on knowledge production in universities in Uganda: an empirical study; Epidemiology and causes of common soccer injuries during university games in Uganda; Micro-credit institution’s services and sustainability of micro, small and medium-scale enterprises during Covid-19 pandemic in Kigezi region south western Uganda; Transformational Leadership style and occupational stress among primary School Teachers in Tanzania; Citrus fruit farmers’ Adaptation Capacities to Climate Variability in Ngora district, Eastern Uganda; Developing metacognition in pre-primary childhood education in Nigeria and Uganda; and Mentorship and supervision in Ugandan higher education Institutions universities: challenges and prospects. The above articles will inform not only academics in these disciplines, but also policy and decision makers.Item Open Access Kabale University Interdisciplinary Research Journal (KURJ)(Kabale University Interdisciplinary Research Journal (KURJ), 2022-07) Kaaya, Siraje; George Stanley, KinyataThe 3rd issue, volume 3 of the KURJ, is published with 8 papers which cover different issues of national, regional and global concern.

This is the identifiable poverty structural complex within which any actor on poverty reduction and eradication has to work. However, despite the above elaborate classification of the causes of poverty in Uganda and the enactment of numerous anti poverty policies, less effort has been expended in analyzing why the poverty situation in Uganda has not significantly changed since the NRM administration. This study therefore attempted inter alia to fill this research gap and also sought to introduce new concepts that can improve poverty reduction and eradication agenda in Uganda. The idea behind this research is that if the causes of the slow progress in poverty reduction are not identified and targeted holistically through policy and inculcation of good governance at all levels of government administration, it will be difficult for Uganda to achieve significant poverty reduction and eradication in the long run. Consequently therefore, the main objective of the study was to establish whether or not a relationship exists between governance and anti-poverty policy performance in Uganda and to generate governance practices that can be applied for better anti-poverty policy performance in Uganda in the future. Following on this objective it is hypothesized that a possible relationship exists between governance practices at all levels of government administration and poverty reduction so much so that particular governance practices are crucial in poverty reduction. A mixed research methodology was adopted in the study and a number of questions were adopted to assist in probing this hypothesis.
