Today's Video Focus: Uganda is home to around 1.3m refugees - that's the largest number of
refugees in any country in Africa, and the third largest in the world.
Behind these huge numbers are conflicts in neighbouring countries the
Democratic Republic of Congo and South Sudan.
More than 90% of Uganda's refugees come for these two countries. But
instead of fighting the tide of displacement, Uganda has become renowned
for its welcoming refugee policy.
