CASE STUDY: RESPECT AND MUTUAL COLLABORATION
A village in the Nakivale Refugee Settlement, a camp with 180,000 souls who have fled to southern Uganda since 1958 — became the first Refugee Camp City of Peace. Why? Because, despite our humanity, refugee camps have become Cities in themselves. With refugees from 12 countries, Nakivale has two things going for it. One, a palpable, vivid need. Two, young refugees who have been fired with the flame of activism for peace.
Two years ago, International Cities of Peace connected Mr. Norbert Byambo, who fled to Sangano in Nakivale when just a teen, with Mr. Kjeld Lanng, one of the leaders of our 400th City of Peace in Aalborg, Denmark. The relationship between the citizens of Aalborg and Sangano has become a case study of the ICP City-to-City Collaboration program.
Respect is the key. Mutual friendship, mutual support, mutual vision for the future. A small part of what they have been able to accomplish — short term goals with a long-range vision of creating the first Refugee Settlement Cities of Peace initiative — is extraordinary. A glimpse can be had with our latest video from the ICP Corporate Social Responsibility program, with which many corporations are paying particular attention. Take a view here!
