Peaceful co-existence between refugee populations and host communities is essential for long-term regional stability. In Kyangwali Settlement and surrounding Kikuube District villages, IGRAO builds social cohesion through joint agricultural labor groups where refugee farmers and Ugandan host neighbors work land side-by-side.
Shared Work, Shared Harvests
Through associations like the Kyebitaka Refugees Action Savings & Agriculture Groups, members pool land access, share agricultural tools, and assist one another during land clearing, planting, and harvesting seasons.
This cooperative labor approach reduces conflict over resource competition, builds mutual trust, and enables smallholder farmers to cultivate larger crop yields than individual households could achieve alone.
