I am delighted to introduce you to a wonderful human being, Aoja Aron, who is from Uganda, and right now, he is working across the country to help the estimated 1.6 million refugees live more sustainably on the land provided by the Government and people of Uganda.
An enormously complex challenge, Aoja takes us through what the refugees face day in day out, as well as the impact on the citizens of Uganda, and how climate change is making it even more difficult. It is heartening to hear someone with so much empathy and compassion – an inspiration to all of us.
One of the critical aspects facing anyone doing this work - anywhere in the world - is funding, and it is declining as challenges are growing around the world. The wealthiest nations of the world must step in and help, because the more we can do to help people stay where they are, the better it is for everyone everywhere.
Thank you Aoja for your enormous heart and passion for the work you do.
