New website: Ex-Combatant Reintegration

Dear friends and followers:

You will notice that I have added a link to the column on the right. Ex-Combatant Reintegration is a webpage dedicated to my research regarding demobilization, disarmament, and reintegration of combatants and former combatants, particularly in the Great Lakes region of Africa. This summer, I will be taking a trip to Uganda to explore what is being done in the North and other areas of the country with regard to ex-combatant reintegration. A preliminary exploration, this trip is intended to serve as a first-step toward conducting in-depth field research in conflict areas in and around the North Kivu province of the Democratic Republic of Congo. The website is brand new and will probably not receive any attention until May 15th. However, once it is up and running, you can expect updates and commentary regarding ex-combatant reintegration in Uganda, including personal reflections and experiences.

Please check back for more updates. Illness and the whirlwind of the end of the semester have kept me away, but I will be back with more updates and commentary soon!

Thanks for following!
Jennifer
