Northern Uganda: After the Storm

The lull in fighting since 2006 has allowed Gulu residents to move and socialize without fear of violence. During the war, few people moved after dusk and the highly militarized environment seriously impacted local economy and commerce. Today, residents frequent an array of shops, bars, eateries and markets. Here, people hang around outside the Corner Cafe, a local watering hole and restaurant.
