This report examines the state of the Uganda refugee response and the role of refugee-led organizations (RLOs) in it. It posits that RLOs in Uganda and, indeed, the entire refugee response in Uganda are frontline actors on some of the most pressing issues in global displacement: equitable responsibility sharing and meaningful refugee participation. As displacement continues across the Great Lakes region, both RLOs and the response in Uganda more broadly have not been given adequate support from the international community. This lack of support threatens important progress made to welcome refugees in what many consider a “model” response.
