if you had read more carefully, you would have noticed that 'killer governments' are covered by the phrase 'peaceful and democratic environment'.
As for 'sleeping federal entities', I fail to understand or see any relevance in your loud thinking.

How about removing killer governments and sleeping federal entities? You
might see a great number of Ugandans going home. Just thinking out loud.

Mw. Lugemwa,
the FIC strategies to curb brain drain in developing countries seem to miss
the point. To my mind, it is not solely the existence of 'health research
infrastructure', 'networks of former trainees' nor 'strong scientific base'
that are conducive to scientists returning to their countries of origin. It
is more a peaceful and democratic environment, plus remuneration that act as
an inducement to voluntary repatriation.
