Abstract
Abstract This article examines the existing post-war recovery framework employed in Uganda to address concerns with housing, land and property (hlp) rights, particularly in Uganda’s post-war recovery period. It explores the integration of special categories of victims, i.e., internally displaced persons (idp s) and children born of war (cbw), with a key focus on how hlp rights are integrated into – or left out of – the transitional justice (tj) process. hlp rights fit within the broader pictures of customary practices and tj, since they enable idp s and cbw to integrate into the post-war communities. Our findings from the Uganda case study cast some doubt on the current process and aim to influence future interventions by emphasising that progress with securing hlp rights for those affected by war and violence is an integral part of any legitimate post-war recovery process and tj interventions.
