Thrilled to be part of the team that paid a courtesy call to @ingutia_edith and @geochola today about the upcoming first ever Kakuma and Kalobeyei RLOs Conference.
The conference will provide platform to RLOs to showcase their good practices in their respective areas of focus.

It would be important to consider those sighted aspects for this definition to be more meaningful... Inclusion and participation of concerned person's in formulating this definition is of paramount to us. "Nothing for us without us."
@Refugees @RefugePt @ARN_africa @GrnRefugees
I think this definition doesn’t reflect the real meaning of an RLO. RLO should rather consider aspect related to founding & governance body not management of any given organization. If these aspects are left out then RLOs loose their real meaning. @unhcr, RLOs hav to define this

Working with refugee-led #CBOs allows for a wider reach with much fewer resources since they're located within the physical space of refugee communities. See @bondekocenter @SolidarityInit1 @YARIDUganda @TomorrowVijana @ActionProgres @CTDSS2016 @platformngo @ResilienceAct.
