Peace is not the absence of war because fighting for peace is war.

#TryMyShoe

[WILLIE OEBA @WillieOeba]

Due to negative ethnicity & selfish leaders who engage the society into ethnic clashes

@refupoet @Ajak_sn @ndindinganga @JTkemmie @EVanquez @Spontaneousray @toonhood @WillieOeba African leaders have failed to implement the necessary leadership competencies when it comes to governing our nations. #TryMyShoe

@Ajak_sn @refupoet @MissREENOLUGA @ndindinganga @EVanquez @Spontaneousray @toonhood @WillieOeba Yes some countries have been continously conflict or 'relapsed' back into conflict #TryMyShoe

@refupoet @MissREENOLUGA @ndindinganga @Ajak_sn @JTkemmie @EVanquez @RustamTurkan @lantanapub @OleItumbi @WillieOeba @AnikaInitiative I know @amnestyusa has had a list of the different ways of trying to tackle this:-
1. Allowing people to reunite with their relatives, and giving refugees visas so they don’t have to spend their life savings and risk drowning to reach safety.

@refupoet @MissREENOLUGA @ndindinganga @Ajak_sn @JTkemmie @EVanquez @RustamTurkan @lantanapub @OleItumbi @WillieOeba @AnikaInitiative 2. Resettlement - Right now, 1.2 million people urgently need this lifeline.
3. Investing in search and rescue operations that would help for instance persons running away from persecution in Myanmar #Trymyshoe

@refupoet @ndindinganga @Ajak_sn @JTkemmie @EVanquez @RustamTurkan @lantanapub @OleItumbi @Spontaneousray @WillieOeba @AnikaInitiative The law enforcement authorities have liaised with the refugee community and set up Security Committees and Elder forums to monitor and address security concerns and other related issues that they face. #TryMyShoe

[Julie Matoke @JTkemmie]

@refupoet @MissREENOLUGA @ndindinganga @Ajak_sn @EVanquez @Spontaneousray @toonhood @WillieOeba @AnikaInitiative Longterm solutions have to be found to the refugee problem as donor aid is not sustainable and guaranteed #TryMyShoe

[Spontaneous The Poet @Spontaneousray]

@refupoet @MissREENOLUGA @ndindinganga @Ajak_sn @JTkemmie @EVanquez @RustamTurkan @lantanapub @OleItumbi @WillieOeba @AnikaInitiative 4. Investigation and prosecution of trafficking gangs who exploit refugees and migrants, and put people’s safety above all else
5. Combating of all kinds of xenophobia and racial discrimination
6. Allowing people to apply for asylum and providing the basics. #Trymyshoe

[Morris Andati @Morrisandati1]

@refupoet @MissREENOLUGA @ndindinganga @Ajak_sn @JTkemmie @EVanquez @Spontaneousray @toonhood @WillieOeba I'll say the political environment around African states has pushed the countries to consistent war. Resource allocation and lastly the difficulty of countries to have mechanisms that help countries recoup from conflict. #TryMyShoe

[Spontaneous The Poet @Spontaneousray]

@Ajak_sn @refupoet @MissREENOLUGA @ndindinganga @JTkemmie @EVanquez @RustamTurkan @lantanapub @OleItumbi Hey, @Ajak am just curious on matters concerning domestic violence within the camps, have these cases been easy to handle or matters in line with LGBTQ #trymyshoe?

[Morris Andati @Morrisandati1]

Very true. Leading to consistent conflict especially when resources are the core drivers of the war #TryMyShoe

[Spontaneous The Poet @Spontaneousray]

@refupoet @MissREENOLUGA @ndindinganga @Ajak_sn @JTkemmie @EVanquez @toonhood @WillieOeba This is a very pressing matter especially to think that 1 in every 10 afghans is a refugee. Why is this though? @SamRamani2 @StephenIkechuk4 @andreatanco #trymyshoe. Will the refugee status be a myth someday?

[Morris Andati @Morrisandati1]

@refupoet @MissREENOLUGA @ndindinganga @Ajak_sn @JTkemmie @EVanquez @Spontaneousray @toonhood @WillieOeba @AnikaInitiative Looking at humanitarian ways to solve the refugee problems is sustainable. Example, Intergration is quiet beneficial to both refugees and hosting countries. Dependency on donor funding is unsustainable and leads to push and pull between donors and host countries #TryMyShoe

[Ajak Jok Ajak @AjakMaulana]

@Spontaneousray @refupoet @MissREENOLUGA @ndindinganga @JTkemmie @EVanquez @RustamTurkan @lantanapub @OleItumbi During my stay in the camp and even while working with RCK, Kakuma, I had not heard of LGBTQ causes. But Domestic violence is a very common problem in the camp. However, the major challenge is that the victims hardly report.
