Depuis janvier, +41 000 réfugiés de #RDC ont rejoint l'#Ouganda, portant le total à env. 600 000. "Les centres de transit et d'accueil à la frontière sont saturés. Nyakabande est à 6 fois sa capacité d'accueil initiale" - Matthew Crentsil, UNHCR Uganda buff.ly/mOAoEyL

In West Nile this week, we join partners UNHCR Uganda, ILO Prospects, World Bank & IFC for a joint visit under the #PROSPECTS programme — supporting refugees & host communities with skilling, protection & education; with generous support from Embassy of the Netherlands in Uganda. #InvestInUGchildren



The road to safety for families fleeing Sudan is long and full of challenges. Goodwill Ambassador Alfonso Herrera was in Uganda, witnessing their strength and the harsh reality they face. UNHCR is on the ground making a difference. Please donate: unh.cr/67f63c6a0
