Although refugee camps are established to accommodate, protect, and
assist those fleeing from violent conflict and persecution, life
often remains difficult there. Building on empirical research with
refugees in a Ugandan camp, Ulrike Krause offers nuanced insights
into violence, humanitarian protection, gender relations, and
coping of refugees who mainly escaped the conflicts in the
Democratic Republic of Congo. This book explores how risks of
gender-based violence against women, in particular, but also
against men, persist despite and partly due to their settlement in
the camp and the system established there. It reflects on modes and
shortcomings of humanitarian protection, changes in gender
relations, as well as strategies that the women and men use to cope
with insecurities, everyday struggles, and structural problems
occurring across different levels and temporalities.
