Chapter 7
Uganda. South Sudanese refugee, Mike (right), with
local Ugandan community leader, Yahaya. Mike, who
arrived in Bidibidi refugee settlement with his family
in 2016, is now farming a piece of land lent by
Yahaya. Yahaya knows the importance of being kind
to foreigners as he himself was a refugee in 1982,
having fled fighting in Uganda. The refugee
settlement has had a positive impact on the area,
giving members of the host community access to
education, water and healthcare.
