Abstract
Uganda hosts Africa’s largest refugee population, and has adopted a widely admired, rights- based approach to them, centered on inclusion and dignity. This study considers Uganda’s progressive refugee policy in the context of Catholic Social Teaching, focusing on the Church’s work in the areas of education, trauma recovery, and peacebuilding. It deals with aspects such as food insecurity, multi-cultural integration, and spiritual, faith-based associations for comprehensive solutions to global refugee governance.
