The eco-friendly briquettes sold by Eco-Fuel Africa are 50 percent cheaper than wood, and they burn cleaner and longer than wood. As a result, people save on average about 200 dollars per year and don’t suffer from indoor air pollution. What’s not to like?

Sanga Moses is CEO of Eco-Fuel Africa, a company that sells kilns and machines that turn food waste into briquettes of clean, inexpensive cooking fuel to stop deforestation in Uganda.

I met some of these children whose hearing has been restored and learned from their teachers and families what a difference this has made, including, being able to join the school choir. A wide and mixed variety of foreign bodies were removed, including, cockroaches, beans, seeds and stones, some of which had been there for a number of years! -

The performance borrows from the smash musical, "Witness Uganda," which documents the true story of Griffin Matthews, a black American who is battling to find his place in a world full of injustice and inhumanity.

Actor Arnold Oceng was born in Uganda, the child of refugees who fled Sudan. But the war spilled over the border, as they often do. Growing up in London, he heard the stories of a harrowing childhood he was too young to remember.
“My mom tells me of running away from the war with me tied on her back, through the jungles of Uganda. Hiding from soldiers, just as she had in Sudan. My mom did that. I am totally connected with that war, through her. But I did not understand the desperation she felt, the desperation of all refugees from war feel, until we made the film.”

Those who made the new movie “The Good Lie,” screenwriter Margaret Nagle’s fictionalized account of what many Sudanese “Lost Boys” went through to get to America, figure there’s a timeliness to its history. It’s not just about 1980s East Africa and America just after 9/11.

MARYSVILLE — For the students of Sunnyside Elementary, it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to interact with children from another culture, but for the school's music teacher, Brenda Ehrhardt, the Sept. 30 visit from the African Children's Choir was the culmination of a lifelong goal.

The Children’s Act bridged an important gap. But good policies without implementation are of little benefit and there is an urgent need to ensure that the justice system in this country is in full conformity with the right of all children – as stated in Article 40 of the CRC – to be treated in a manner which promotes their sense of dignity and worth.

The Children’s Act has immensely improved the lives of many Ugandan children, including those in the justice system. However, more needs to be done particularly to protect the growing number of street children.
