dc.description.abstract Uganda has been a home for refugees since time as early as the late 1930s when it received over 7,000 refugees mainly from Poland, Italy, Egypt, Cyprus, Syria and Palestine. The trend, however, escalated in 1950 where about 178,000 Sudanese refugees fled to Uganda as a result of civil war between the northern Arabs and the Southerners. Uganda also experienced another mass exodus in 1959 when about 80,000 Rwandese fleeing civil war between Tutsi and Hutu arrived in the country. During the early days of independence, another 33,000 refugees fled from the former Belgian Congo into Uganda due to a breakdown of law and order in the country. en_US
