Uganda Refugee News - February 2023

Updated: Oct 1, 2023


Welcome to the thirty-eight edition of URN covering publication and news from February 2023

Given we have a number of new subscribers and as a reminder to the 'OGs' amongst you, I thought I'd explain how the newsletter's related website works. At its simplest, all the previous editions of the newsletter are available on the main page in date ascending order but possibly of more use is the sector pages which pull together all the newsletter sector sections in reverse order. There is one for Education, Environment, Health, Livelihood and Resilience, Protection, WASH, ....And the Rest - which is all the publications from the Other section of the newsletter.

Also, it turns out I'm not perfect and sometimes when researching for the newsletter, I find articles that got 'missed' from previous newsletters. I do add them to the website at the relevant places but make it clear it wasn't included in the original by putting NEW in front of it.

Please note that submissions are always welcome and can be shared, for inclusion in subsequent newsletters, via our email - ugandarefugeenews@gmail.com

Welcome to all the new subscribers and thank you to all who have been sharing the newsletter and increasing its impact and coverage - do continue! They can subscribe using the bar below. The more the merrier!
