Can you imagine, for a moment, a woman making the biggest decision of her life? Either to stay living in the Acholi refugee camp in Kampala, where she works crushing rock into gravel. Or to travel five hundred kilometers to her homeland by way of a transitional village which serves as a landing point while she reestablishes her old life. She can reconnect with her family and their village or, alternatively, secure her own land, restart a business or get crops in the ground a


Gender Based Violence Training
We are so grateful that we found Josephine from Gulu to come to Kampala to give the Gender Based Violence (GBV) training to six women from the Acholi Quarter. We saw significant growth in these women over the 2 day training. The value these strong women will add to their community is priceless. #genderbasedviolence #Uganda


Preparations Are Underway
The Red Earth RISING staff is preparing for their next trip to Uganda. We leave mid-November and will spend three weeks in Kampala and Gulu working with our partners to do gender based sexual assault training, kick off our micro finance project and begin filming a documentary. #Uganda #microfinance #genderbasedviolence
