What was meant to serve as a temporary refuge for 12,000 displaced people has evolved into a densely populated settlement of more than 60,000 refugees and asylum seekers, raising fresh questions about Malawi’s refugee policies and humanitarian response.
The concerns were raised on Wednesday during a screening of the film You Name Ourselves organized by the Arts and Global Health Center Africa (AGHCA) in Mzuzu, where journalists, artists, and human rights advocates gathered to discuss the realities facing refugees living in Malawi.
