Unyama Internally Displaced People Camp (GULU)
Location:
Gulu Municipal Council
Gulu, Uganda

It is extremely unsafe to travel to this camp which harbors refugees from the kidnapping, terrorizing and murdering done by Joseph Kony and his Lord’s Resistance Army (LRA). The LRA has captured and enslaved more than 20,000 children. Terrorism and clashes between Uganda’s army and the LRA have caused 90% of Ugandans to become displaced in their own country. Many girls are raped by the LRA and all captives are forced to become soldiers. This is the organization that brought Samite to meet three teenage girls who escaped the LRA.
