The HA2015 study examines the effects of four broad challenges on the humanitarian enterprise: universality, terrorism, coherence and security. Each of these has resonance in the context of northern Uganda. There are parallels between the Uganda case and other country studies in some aspects. The manifestation of the terrorism/counter-terrorism paradigm, for instance, has many parallels to Colombia. In other respects, such as the question of coherence, Uganda is unique in the countries examined to date.
