This last week has been a whirlwind of activities.It would all be in the category of gaining information for our InterVarsity New England Global Issues Internship thru serving Child Voice International. I represented Child Voice in meetings with the following groups:
Invisible Children, where US Ambassador to Uganda, Stephen Brownings (pictured) was the honored guest. I hope to have him as a speaker to our group in June.
Gulu District Disaster Management Cooperative Meeting, where I learned about the resettlement process of the IDP campus. At present 40% of the 700,000 are still in the camps, but 30% have moved back to their traditional homelands, with another 30% in transitional stages.
I also met with the local Land Management Office and the District Water Resource Office to learn about sanitation, land resettlement issues, and water resource management.
