A study was conducted in Nkere zone Makindye Division a Kampala suburb, the main
issues considered included the manner squatter settlements develop, who establishes
them and why it happens so. Then their impact on both the human and bio-physical
environments. The study also considered measures and controls to reduce the
development of slums around cities.
A general study survey research design was used in carrying out this study and
instruments in data collection included questionnaires administered to key respondents
like Division and Medical officials and other government relevant bodies, then local
resident respondents. Some interview schedules were also used to collect data from
residents and other representatives of Nkere zone. Photography and observation were
also applied.
Findings revealed that the effect caused by squatter settlements to the environment is
so adverse in the sense that irreversible environmental damage may be the end result if
not checked in time.
