The psychological well-being of school-age South Sudanese children living in a refugee camp in Uganda
REFNo: SS938ES
RATIONALE
To the best of our knowledge, there are few studies trying to understand how South Sudanese refugee children thrive in settlements in Uganda, limiting the insight into their overall psychological well-being. Therefore, this study seeks to obtain a better understanding of how South Sudanese school-age refugee children experience their life in a refugee settlement in Northern Uganda.
The forced displacement of children implicates coping with and adapting to scenarios and situations that can be detrimental to a child’s normal development and well-being. To understand how children cope with the overall forced migration experience can contribute to find solutions to mitigate or reduce the potentially negative impact it has on children’s psychological well-being and mental health. By improving the knowledge about children’s experiences in refugee settlements, this study ultimately wishes to contribute with evidence that can facilitate the design and implementation of children friendly activities and environments in refugee settlements.
OBJECTIVES
In order to achieve the overarching aim mentioned before, this study plans to:
• observe how children play and socialize with each-other;
• understand how children learn in the refugee camp;
• explore how children cope emotionally with the different challenges caused by forced migration.
