New book highlights the plight of more than a million Ugandans
Michael, aged 25, was abducted by Lord's Resistance Army rebels in northern
Uganda. His captors beat him on the head with rifle-butts when he was no
longer able to carry their loot and left him for dead. Government soldiers
found him a week later. "Termites had started eating me alive," he recalls.
"They had begun building an anthill on my body."
Michael's is one of many personal testimonies published in "When the sun
sets, we start to worry...", a book launched on Thursday by the UN Office
for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs in conjunction with its
Integrated Regional Information Networks. Using personal accounts and
powerful black-and-white photographs, "When the Sun Sets, We Start to
Worry..." aims to draw attention to the plight of more than a million
Ugandan children, women and men whose present existence encompasses a degree
of misery and horror seldom seen elsewhere.
An electronic version of the book is available at:
