Abstract
Purpose: The aim of this paper is to report preliminary evidence on evaluating the efficacy of the
institutional framework in the management of trade in wildlife products in Uganda.
Methodology: The study adopted a descriptive cross sectional survey design. Analysis was done
thematically and content for qualitative (interview) data and archival data respectfully; and also
SPSS for quantitative data analysis from a sample 169 subjects. The hypotheses were tested using
hierarchical regression.
Findings: The institutional framework for managing wildlife trade in Uganda is weak. The study
also found that efficacious institutional framework and management tools of planning and control
have a predictive force.
Originality/Value: This paper answers the pertinent question of whether the management of
wildlife in Uganda in the propensity to use and patronize wildlife trade is efficacious. The paper
provides the initial evidence of the application of institutional and broken windows theories as
relevant frameworks for understanding management of wildlife trade.
