Community based volunteers as partners for agencies working with formerly abducted children and youth: experiences from northern Uganda

Ann Lorschiedter
PhD. student from Germany who is currently finalising her research on the reintegration of formerly abducted children and youth in northern Uganda

Correspondence Address:

The 20 year conflict in northern Uganda between the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA) and the Government of Uganda has resulted in a severe humanitarian crisis. Agencies working in the sector of psychosocial support over the years have developed a concept to work closely with community members who are made responsible for many of the community based activities. This article describes the experiences of these community volunteer counsellors (CVCs).
