CEEOL.com - African Elderly Refugees’ Perspectives on Needs Assessment and Response Processes in Refugee Camps in Uganda - The findings of the study show that older persons perceive themselves as being selectively supported, while they also notice that there are no clear criteria to identify their needs which are not prioritized, support groups exclude some of the older refugees, and there are no specific organizations that work with older refugees. The recommendation is that older people should feel included in all decisions that target them throughout intervention programs or support projects cycles.
