The Realities of Self-reliance within the Ugandan Refugee Context

The main objective of the assessment presented here was to better understand the primary barriers to the sustainable livelihoods of refugees and host communities across urban and settlement contexts, in order to inform how the livelihoods of these groups can be best supported. The assessment covered refugees and host communities in four settlements (Bidibidi, Nakivale, Palabek, and Rhino Camp), four secondary urban centres (Arua, Gulu, Kitgum, and Mbarara), and Kampala.
