Incredible segment on #CNN about 'Salaam', a video game made by @OfficialLual & @junubgames that depicts life as a Ugandan refugee; previously championed by @thegameawards as the 2018 Global Gaming Citizen. In-game transactions provide real-world relief. https://t.co/TYbp9nqXV6

It's an honor to be the @CNN Champion for Change.

My goal on this earth is to live as an inspiration to those in the refugee camps that not only can you survive, but you can thrive

Video games are very powerful tools we can use to Improve our Global Community.

We @junubgames can’t wait to give you salaam game!

Thanks to my family, gaming community @FacebookGaming @thegameawards and friends who have been supportive throughout this journey and helped me come this far.
