More than half of the 16.7 million refugees worldwide now live in urban areas. Many of those in Uganda's capital city, Kampala, live in poverty. Those from French-speaking Democratic Republic of the Congo are often unable to communicate or find work among English-speaking Ugandans. They also face discrimination and isolation, all the while living in fear of possible arrest or deportation. Forced to keep a low-profile, they are out of reach of typical humanitarian aid. TakePart World producer Alex Stapleton meets with Robert Hakiza, the cofounder of Young African Refugees for Integral Development. A refugee from the war and ongoing violence in DRC that has killed 5 million people since 1996, Hakiza and two friends developed a program to equip refugees with basic skills essential to thriving in Ugandan society. Along with language classes, YARID breaks down cultural barriers by offering social media courses and athletic programs.
