(2024)Department of Service Studies
- Abstract
- This section gives an overview of Lake Victoria, that is currently underutilized for cargo
transportation by the 3 East African states of Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania, despite the great
potential of this shared water body for multimodal transport and trade opportunities.
In order to sustainably develop infrastructure on Lake Victoria, the three member states must
adopt sustainable business models that prioritize environmental and social responsibility.
This includes promoting green transportation practices, investing in renewable energy
sources, and supporting local communities and small businesses. By fostering a culture of

transportation by the 3 East African states of Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania, despite the great
potential of this shared water body for multimodal transport and trade opportunities.
In order to sustainably develop infrastructure on Lake Victoria, the three member states must
adopt sustainable business models that prioritize environmental and social responsibility.
This includes promoting green transportation practices, investing in renewable energy
sources, and supporting local communities and small businesses. By fostering a culture of
sustainability in their operations, the member states can ensure the long-term viability of their
transportation infrastructure on the lake. There is need for engagement of stakeholders across
the board to ensure sustainable value through sustainable. The member states ought to have
a paradigm shift and be proactive in a way of creating value in delivering service on the Lake
as opposed to the reactionary way of doing business co-creation and capture.
Gender equity and equality play a crucial role in the operations on Lake Victoria, as they ensure
that all members of society have equal access to the opportunities presented by the lake. By
involving women in decision-making processes and ensuring their representation in
leadership roles, the three member states can create a more inclusive and diverse workforce
that is better equipped to address the challenges and opportunities presented by Lake Victoria.
Borders and boundaries on Lake Victoria play a crucial role in the revival of transport by the
three member states. By harmonizing regulations, streamlining customs procedures, and
promoting cross-border cooperation, the member states can facilitate efficient and seamless
trade on the lake. Furthermore, addressing border disputes and conflicts will be essential for
creating a conducive environment for sustainable development and cooperation on Lake
Victoria.
Lake Victoria presents vast opportunities for multimodal transport and trade for Uganda,
Kenya, and Tanzania. By working together in a coordinated and collaborative manner, the
three member states can unlock the full potential of the lake's resources and promote
economic growth in the region (ISCOS, 2024). (Less)
