IDP Camps Are Disappearing in northern Uganda
We traveled from the Kampala to northern Uganda to visit Pagak Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) Camp Leader Denis Lemoyi, who figures prominently in Skylight Pictures’ film “The Reckoning: The Battle for the International Criminal Court”. Denis is actually the former Pagak Camp Leader, because the camp has been largely dismantled and there is no need any longer for a Camp Leader. Denis tells us here about the change as people left the camp over the past 3 years to return to their villages.
