VOICES FROM THE FIELDTHE IRC BLOG
“Can there be peace in all of Karamoja?”
Photo: The IRC |
| This past August, a conflict that seemed to one elderly woman in Uganda's Karamoja Province “like it would not end,” did just that. In September, two bitterly warring clans began to graze their cattle together, a remarkable turn of events. Jie and Matheniko now move freely across the border between each others’ territory, something that would have been unthinkable during the conflict. There is even talk of intermarriage. Here's the full story from the IRC's Thomas Bohnett in Uganda. |

Absolutely there can be peace

Absolutely there can be peace in Karamoja but this will come with time through putting enormous efforts on peace and justice emphasizing the traditional justice system.
The different agencies working in the region should be at the forefront in utilizing or putting in place frameworks to operationalised the traditional justice system.
