YOUR VISIT

Uganda has one of the largest refugee communities in the world, with over 13 Settlements  located in the country (mainly Somalians, Congolese, Rwandese, Burundian, and Sudanese). Although many of these refugees are located in refugee camps throughout the country, a large percentage of the refugee population (both official and unofficial) have made their way to Kampala. Many of these refugees struggle mightily to succeed in Uganda, as language barriers, ethnic barriers, and many other barriers stand in the way of development. There is great poverty and malnutrition among the refugee community, and the refugee communities do not find nearly as much support as they require.
