kampala - Arab Today
Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni on Friday left for neighboring Kenya where he will meet his counterparts to discuss solutions to the Somali refugee crisis.
The meeting scheduled for Saturday will bring together heads of state of member countries of the Inter-Governmental Authority on Development, the international community and other stakeholders.
The summit aims to marshal a comprehensive regional approach to deliver durable solutions for Somali refugees whilst promoting sustainable re- integration of returnees in Somalia.
UN figures show more than two million Somalis have been displaced in one of the world's most protracted humanitarian crises that has now entered its third decade.
An estimated 1.1 million Somalis are internally displaced inside the Horn of Africa nation and some 900,000 are refugees in neighboring countries, Ethiopia, Djibouti, Kenya and Uganda.
