The synergy between gender relations, child labour and disability in the post-war Acholi sub-region of Northern Uganda

Philosophiae Doctor - PhD / After a war of nearly two decades in the Acholi sub-region of northern Uganda many families and
communities were physically, socially, economically and psychologically devastated. A myriad of
other concomitant effects of the war such as distorted gender relations in households and undue
exposure of vulnerable children to the menace of hazardous child labour manifest in the
communities today. A plethora of non-government organisations has worked in the Acholi subregion
trying to transform the communities after the war, but these challenges remain thus
compromising social justice and the well-being of children.
