Join the Journey: Walk for Change with JLOF

This July and August 2024, Gertrude Opira, Chair of JLOF Sweden, and Professor Aihie Osarenkhoe, Advisor to JLOF, are embarking on a remarkable 700 km walk along the historic Camino de Santiago, specifically the Camino del Norte in Northern Spain. They are undertaking this personal challenge with a purpose: to raise awareness and funds for JLOF’s impactful programs in Northern Uganda. A region marked by conflict, marginalization, and socio-economic challenges. Today, it is characterized by recovery, development, and ongoing efforts to build a peaceful and prosperous region.
