Training Manual and User Guide on Refugee Rights and Protection

Hits: 54

Editor’s Note: This message below was published by Refugee Law Project on Friday, 8 February 2019 at 18:37hrs.

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

After several months of research and consultation, we are pleased to share the long-awaited Training Manual and its User Guide on Refugee Rights and Protection, and once again thank all our partners for the insightful comments which where incorporated during the development of the training manual and user guide. We also extend our sincere appreciation to those who attended the launch of the manual and the guide at Skyz Hotel on 31 January 2019 as well as people who followed the proceedings via social media.

We strongly believe that the training manual and its user guide, when used side-by-side, not only complement each other in facilitating quality capacity building programmes, but also provide insights and headway in building the capacity of key stakeholders on refugee rights and protection as an important step in securing refugee-host relations through enhanced protection in Uganda and elsewhere.

As we commemorate our 20th Anniversary (#RLP@20), we will be engaging various stakeholders in a series of events at which we will use the training manual and user guide. Also, we will use such platforms to gather views, comments and suggestions to inform its second edition early next year.

Meantime, should you have any question, require clarification, or wish to request a copy or copies of the training manual and user guide, do not hesitate to write to us at info@refugeelawproject.org

As always, your support in ensuring that refugees and hosts co-exist peacefully are invaluable and we very much appreciate the progressive partnership and support thus far. Indeed, the struggle to realize a context where all people lead dignified lives irrespective of their legal status in possible through strategic and progressive partnerships.

Thank you.

Onen David

    I appreciate what you are doing but regarding localise platforms, how can people for example those in rural areas get this information so that they begin to appreciate the need for peace. Thank you.

      Great concern Wilbert!

      Something to ponder on! For now, plans are for translating the documents in refugee friendly languages as well as languages friendly to the hosts in various refugee hosting districts. This will go hand-in-hand with rigorous engagements with community members, community leaders, and other stakeholders. Any further suggestions will greatly be appreciated. Once again, thank you for visiting the site, and for the comments.

    This is indeed a good move..however, I believe, the training manual and user guide have considered the views of the refugees since it’s about their rights and protection. And if not, it will be advisable to reconsider their views for holistic implementation.
    Thanks

      Dear Nawal,

      Thank you for the comments. Indeed we consulted RWC leaders in Kiryandongo, Adjumani, Lamwo, and Kampala, and we believe their opinions represent those of other refugees. From their recommendations, we are now translating the documents in refugee friendly languages after which we will disseminate the translated versions throughout the refugee hosting area in Uganda.

      I will update this page periodically.

      Onen
