Description

another in my "Earth" series, this is Uganda



thank you to: :iconlyka-stock: for the use of Female Stock 2

The country is located on the East African plateau, averaging about 1100 metres (3,250 ft) above sea level, and this slopes very steadily downwards to the Sudanese Plain to the North. However, much of the south is poorly drained, while the centre is dominated by Lake Kyoga, which is also surrounded by extensive marshy areas. Uganda lies almost completely within the Nile basin. The Victoria Nile drains from the lake into Lake Kyoga and thence into Lake Albert on the Congolese border . It then runs northwards into Sudan. One small area on the eastern edge of Uganda is drained by the Turkwel river, part of the internal drainage basin of Lake Turkana.

Hi,
I just came back from Kitgum in Northern Uganda. I went there to put in place an art therapy service in a small orphanage for former child soldiers, AIDS orphans, and young people affected by conflict and trauma.
I made a short movie while I was there. Here is the link:

I’d be so grateful if you could watch it, and if you think it’s worth it, forward the link to friends and colleagues, and help me to promote the awareness and the sponsorship of war orphans at the Pader Orphans Caring Project in Northern Uganda. One simple Facebook post can reach hundreds of people.
Thank you.

David
