 Ficus natalensis is a multi-purpose tree highly suitable for agroforestry. It provides shade and revitalizes soil productivity, produces fodder and firewood alongside an assortment of prized timber products. Ficus natalensis is a very special tree in Buganda region. Its bark is used to produce a special draping material, the back clone, used in various traditional functions and burial ceremonies. When the king chose a chief, he would plant a Ficus tree for him. The tree signified ownership and marked the boundaries of land. This power was a preserve of men, meaning a woman could not plant Ficus because the very act symbolized power and leadership. This is the first time I have seen a tree with a strong image of it. The first time I saw a tree with a strong image of it, I was very surprised. This is the first time I saw a tree with a strong image of it. I was surprised when I saw it. But following the ACM sensitization meetings organized by CIFO and OPWAI, 50 of the 99 women group members have planted Ficus. Five of them have even been able to sell the backcloth and benefit economically. Although the custom still prohibits the women from producing the backcloth, planting and owning the tree is a step in the right direction. The writing is now engraved in stone that ACM is the way to go. It builds a safe space for the vulnerable groups, in this case women, to participate in all the decision-making processes so that they can negotiate for an equal share of their tenure rights to trees and forest resources.
