New #COMPASblog piece👇 Uganda is often presented as a success story in the world of refugee management. But what impact has recent ration cuts had on parts of the country? We are delighted to share this article written by experts Eirin Haugseth, PRIO Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU); Kerstin Fisk, Associate Professor at Loyola Marymount University; and Patrick N. Schjølberg, PRIO. The co-authors share insights from recent fieldwork in the Central and West Nile regions of #Uganda and analyse how budget cuts from the World Food Programme are hitting some parts of the country particularly hard.
