Through six testimonies of women abducted by the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA), ‘No Longer Silent’ highlights their experience in returning to their communities and rebuilding their lives. Access to housing and land, as well as food security and the desire for their children to receive an education, are amongst their primary challenges and concerns. The documentary exposes the shortcomings of the current Peace, Recovery and Development Plan of the Ugandan Government which has to date not included women as beneficiaries in the reconstruction programmes.

 

"No Longer Silent" was produced by the Women’s Initiatives for Gender Justice (www.iccwomen.org) and its local partner, the Greater North Women’s Voices for Peace Network, in collaboration with Witness (www.witness.org).
