The Ugandan Orphanage Business

Anna Darling - Lumos Voices

This news post from Lumos highlights the recent BBC piece on "the vast sums of international funding that go to orphanages in Uganda, many of which are operating illegally" and calls on "governments, donors, faith groups, philanthropists and individuals to make a commitment to move from investing in orphanages towards to preventing family separation and developing family-based alternatives. Changes in policy and practice in this area will transform the lives of millions of children across the world."
