The Uganda Context

Uganda hosts approximately 1.96 million refugees and asylum seekers as of October 2025—the largest refugee population in Africa.

With 55% from South Sudan and 31% from the Democratic Republic of Congo, the country demonstrates remarkable hospitality through progressive refugee policies.

However, urban refugees in Kampala face overcrowding, limited livelihood opportunities, language barriers, and restricted healthcare access despite expectations for self-reliance.
