Synopsis:
Alcohol consumption in Uganda is not considered a social problem; it therefore passes unnoticed even among students in urban schools. It becomes a problem when someone misses something. Although other substances such as khat and marijuana are common, alcohol especially packed in sachets (tot packs) are very popular, easily accessible and easy to conceal by young people. Despite the recognition of devastating effects of alcohol on household food security, many leaders in various communities in Uganda have not instituted serious measures to prevent the onset of alcohol consumption in homes and communities thereby affecting production in these communities. The study therefore sought to explore the substantial effects resulting from the consumption of alcohol and how it impact on household food security in Pajule Sub-County, Pader District. It specifically looks at the possible causes of alcoholism and food insecurity; examine how alcohol consumption affects household food security; and suggests possible ways of reducing alcoholism in Pajule Sub-County in order to improve food security.
