Using the Gender Action Learning Systems (GALS) approach, Mildmay Uganda is training urban refugees as community health workers to facilitate improved access and utilization of sexual & reproductive health and family planning services by other refugees in their communities. Kampala's weak health system is not adequately meeting the needs of host and refugee communities and Mildmay's project presents a solution to meet the particular vulnerabilities of refugees, including overcoming transportation, education, culture and language barriers
