In October 2022, Government officially started operationalisation of the Wildlife Fund to compensate victims of human-wildlife conflict. Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA) put aside 2 percent of its revenue collections amounting to 900m, which constitutes part of the fund to support the compensation scheme.
In an effort to give force to the compensation scheme, the Uganda Wildlife (Compensation Scheme) regulations 2022 No. 65 were gazetted on 5th of August 2022 and that the Uganda Wildlife (Revenue Sharing) Regulations, 2022 No. 65 were equally gazetted on the same day.
