Abstract: This study sought to find out customary practices and institutions and land policy implementation in the Districts of Kasese, Sheema and Bushenyi in Uganda since the Uganda National Land Policy (UNLP) 2013. Using mixed methods design data was collected from 436 participants and respondents and was analysed using SPSS 23 for quantitative analysis and general content analysis for qualitative analysis. The study found out that customary institutions and practices are intervening in land policy implementation and should be further addressed for better land policy implementation. The study recommended compatible practices with the UNLP 2013 integrated into land policy implementation.
Keywords: Land policy implementation, customary practices and institutions, central-local governmental relations, land rights, land rights administration, decentralisation, UNLP 2013.
