Uganda Refugee News - July 2020

Updated: Jan 14, 2022



Welcome to Edition 7

As the impact of the pandemic continues, so too Uganda's refugee response continues. Resilient as ever, refugees appear to be coping with the enforced changes but funding - a perennial problem - becomes even harder to source just as the situation in Eastern DRC worsens with reports of new incidents of violence on a regular basis and at the same time South Sudan's peace is being tested.  The sliver of good news in an otherwise sorry state of affairs is that despite the limitations on travel and general movement globally, research and news on the refugee response in Uganda continues to be produced and so this newsletter can continue to share this with you all. The eagle eyed among you will spot a wee format change - instead of separately including the webpage of each piece, I have taken to making the title of the piece a hyperlink. To me, it looks tidier and takes up less room, so I hope you approve. Feedback (and submissions) are extremely welcome – please send to Ugandrefugeenews@gmail.com and please feel free to share the newsletter with anyone you think might be interested - they can sign up by clicking here
