while participating in this year's summit, I am reminded of the story of Oloya. How much is the financial policy of the country motivating such individuals battling poverty in this country? Ramathan Ggoobi Ministry of Finance Oxfam in Uganda

Violence against women is a poisonous weed that plagues our society and must be pulled up from its roots. These roots grow in the soil of prejudice and of injustice; they must be countered with educational action that places the person, with his or her dignity, at the centre.

Whilst there is shrinking funding across the world for humanitarian operations, Uganda govt 's contributions through its progressive policies towards refugees and asylum seekers is inspiring. More funding to refugee operations is key
