Integration of Ugandan LGBTQ refugees in Kenya under the Shirika Plan
Ugandan LGBTQ refugees in Kenya fear being further marginalized by a plan to integrate refugees into Kenyan society, known as the Shirika Plan. LGBTQ groups are concerned about safety, health, and housing issues not being addressed in the plan. The plan aims to improve the lives of refugees and create economic opportunities in Kenya but faces opposition from some community leaders. LGBTQ activists worry about increased anti-LGBTQ sentiment in Kenya and Africa as a whole.
