Infrastructure development has been widely recognized as a foundational enabler of agricultural market access, particularly in rapidly urbanizing municipalities where the interface between rural production and urban consumption creates both opportunities and logistical challenges. In Uganda, inadequate infrastructure continued to constrain the ability of agricultural businesses to access markets efficiently, driving up transaction costs and reducing the competitiveness of smallholder and small business producers. In Nansana Municipality, Wakiso District, one of Uganda's fastest-growing peri-urban areas, agricultural businesses operated in an environment characterized by poor road networks, inadequate storage facilities, unreliable market infrastructure, and limited access to digitalconnectivity.

Youth unemployment has emerged as one of the most pressing socioeconomic challenges in sub-Saharan Africa, with its consequences extending far beyond individual economic deprivation to encompass broader social instability, community insecurity, and rising crime rates. In Uganda, where over 78% of the population is below the age of 30, the challenge of youth unemployment has taken on particular urgency, with urban areas bearing a disproportionate share of both unemployed youth and associated crime incidences. In Nansana Municipality, Wakiso District, one of Uganda's fastest-growing peri-urban settlements, high concentrations of unemployed young people coexisted with escalating reports of criminal activity, raising critical questions about the causal and contributory relationship between joblessness and crime among urban youth.
