Abstract
Purpose
This study aims at navigating the effects of climate change on the right to access to food within the East African Community region, using the case study of Uganda.
Design/methodology/approach
The author used doctrinal review of different policies and strategies that have been developed and implemented by the EAC to address the growing patterns of food insecurity and climate change.
Findings
Findings show that besides climate change, there are other factors that have played a major role in contributing to food insecurity in the region such as the impact of the ongoing Russia–Ukraine war, absence of food storage reserves/banks, scarring effects of the COVID 19 pandemic, inadequate implementation of agricultural policies on climate change, high post-harvest losses and food waste amongst others.
Originality/value
This research paper is the author’s sole writing and has never been submitted for publication in any journal.
