The thesis investigates land tenure dynamics and integrated watershed management. We consider integrated watershed management as a process and act of holistically managing the environment in a given delineated spatial unit, considering both upstream and downstream systems connectivity for social and ecological systems sustainability. Integrated watershed management incorporates several implementation approaches, including integrated water resources management. In the research's first primary objective, we survey the state of integrated watershed management in dynamic land tenure contexts. The second main objective, we examine the relationship between land tenure and integrated watershed management. Proactively, the third objective assesses the relevant land and related resources legislation responsiveness to integrated watershed management and the land tenure dynamic and conceptualises for reforms. Analysing and acquiring data involves qualitative and quantitative methods.The methods include primary data collection through catchment surveys, questionnaires administration, focus group discussions, interviews, and catchment reconnaissance observation. Complimentary data consists of systematic literature reviews, secondary satellite imagery and other Geographical Information System (GIS) data. The methods applied produced both unit and spatial data, with unit data mostly from households as the primary units of analysis and interaction. The data is managed and analysed using GIS tools like ArcMap, QGIS and statistical tools in Ms Excel, SPSS, and R. The study mainly draws case studies from the global south, targeting catchments in the Victoria and Albert basin lakes in Eastern Africa. The main findings and tentative conclusions include (a) integrated watershed management approaches improve water resources governance and resource management amidst land tenure dynamics. The evidence shows a significant difference in the performance of water resources governance markedly better in the catchment with integrated water resources management practices than in the base catchment unaffected by these practices. The finding contributes to the aspirations for promoting integrated watershed management approaches for improved resource governance and the concept that resource management measures depend on governance effectiveness. However, the potential of integrated watershed management encounters limiting social factors such as land tenure. According to the comprehensive literature review (b), land tenure relates to various aspects of integrated watershed management, including driving land use and cover changes. As such, we confirm a relationship between land use and cover changes proportional areas losses ranging between 80% - 95% of woodland and indigenous forests in the case study area in the Lake Victoria basin. This degree of land use and land cover change, the functionality of other change driving factors perceived and the degree of adopting sustainable practices depends on the prevailing land tenure. Achieving integrated watershed management, conversant of the land tenure role, requires an enabling legal and institutional environment. However, the research findings for main objective (c) show the prevailing legislation needs to be more responsive to allow effective integrated watershed management. As such, we suggest reforms and provide model legislation provisional suggestions. We recommend several areas for future research, including assessing the legal feasibility of integrated watershed management and land tenure responsive legislation and the needed land administrative reforms to deliver on ensuring sustainability and sustainable development.The research enhances our understanding of the potential and possibilities of land tenure during integrated watershed management. The study also furnishes scholars, resource managers, policymakers, and program evaluators with more information for decisions.

520 $a Untersucht wird die Dynamik zwischen Landbesitz und integriertem Management von Flusseinzugsgebieten vergleichend am Beispiel von drei Flusseinzugsgebieten im Gebiet des Lake Victoria/Uganda. Das integrierte Management von Flusseinzugsgebieten ist ein Prozess des ganzheitlichen Managements der Umwelt in einer abgegrenzten raumlichen Einheit, wobei sowohl die vorgelagerte als auch die nachgelagerte Systemkonnektivitat berucksichtigt werden, um die Nachhaltigkeit sozialer und okologischer Systeme zu gewahrleisten. Das integrierte Flusseinzugsgebietsmanagement umfasst mehrere Ansatze zur Umsetzung, einschlieslich des integrierten Wasserressourcenmanagements.In einem ersten Schritt wird der Stand der Forschung zu Themen des integrierten Flusseinzugsgebietsmanagements in dynamischen Landbesitzkontexten erarbeitet. In einem zweiten Schritt wird die Beziehung zwischen Landbesitz und integriertem Management von Flusseinzugsgebieten betrachtet. In einem dritten Schritt wird die Reaktionsfahigkeit der relevanten Gesetze in Ugandabewertet sowie die damit verbundenen Ressourcen in Bezug auf integriertes Flusseinzugsgebietsmanagement, Landbesitzdynamik und auf die Konzipierung von Reformen.Die zur Anwendung gekommenen Methoden umfassen die Erhebung von Primardaten im Flusseinzugsgebiet, Fokusgruppendiskussionen, Interviews und Erkundungsbeobachtungen im Einzugsgebiet. Die erganzenden Daten umfassen Satellitenbilder und flachendifferenzierte Daten zu den lokalen Umweltbedingungen. Die Verarbeitung der flachendifferenzierten Daten erfolgte mit Hilfe Geographischer Informationssysteme, die statistische Datenanalyse erfolgte mit Hilfe von Ms Excel, SPSS und R.Die Studie stutzt sich hauptsachlich auf drei Fallstudien aus den Einzugsgebieten von Lake Victoria und Lake Albert, Ostafrika. Zu den wichtigsten Ergebnissen gehort, dass integrierte Managementansatze fur Flusseinzugsgebiete die regionale Ressourcenmanagement verbessern. Die Befunde zeigen einen signifikanten Unterschied in der Leistung der Wasserressourcenbewirtschaftung, die deutlich besser in Einzugsgebieten mit integrierten Wasserressourcenmanagementpraktiken sind als in Einzugsgebieten, die von diesen Praktiken unbeeinflusst sind. Die Ergebnisse tragen dazu bei eine verbesserte Ressourcenverwaltung fur integrierte Flusseinzugsgebietsmanagementansatze anzustreben und konzeptionell zu berucksichtigen. Das Potenzial eines integrierten Flusseinzugsgebietsmanagements stost jedoch auf einschrankende soziale Faktoren wie Landbesitz. Entsprechend den Ergebnissen der Literaturrecherche bezieht sich Landbesitz auf verschiedene Aspekte des integrierten Managements von Flusseinzugsgebieten, einschlieslich von Landnutzungs und Landbewirtschaftung. In den Fallstudien deuten Landnutzungsanderungen auf proportionale Flachenverluste hin, die zwischen 80% und 95% der von einheimischen Waldern bewachsenen Flachen betreffen. Dieser Grad der Landnutzungsanderung, die Funktionalitat der steuernden Faktoren und der Grad der Ubernahme nachhaltiger Landnutzungspraktiken hangen im Wesentlichen von den vorherrschenden Landbesitzverhaltnissen ab. Um ein integriertes Flusseinzugsgebietsmanagement zu erreichen das auch die Rolle des Landbesitzes berucksichtigt, ist ein entsprechendes rechtliches und institutionelles Umfeld erforderlich. Die Analyse der bestehenden Gesetzeslage zeigt, dass die geltende Gesetzgebung fur die Berucksichtigung von Landbesitzverhaltnissen bei der Umnweltplanung im weiteren Sinne offener gestaltet sein muss, um ein effektives integriertes Flusseinzugsgebietsmanagement zu ermoglichen.
