17:30 Registration, 18:30 Dinner, 19:45 Presentation
“Security and Policing and the Importance it brings to the Stability of a Community”
Our Presenter: Mr. Musa Ecweru, Minister of State, Uganda.
Learning Outcomes: Mr. Ecweru will be speaking about the process of resettling 1.6 million refugees back to their villages under military presence and how he was able to establish and transition to a police and security presence in place of the military.
About Mr. Ecweru and his Presentation
Musa Ecweru is Minister of State with portfolio of Emergency, Disaster Preparedness and Refugees in Uganda. Previous to being a Member of Parliament, Musa was a military commander and in that capacity was one of the founders of the local militia group the Arrow Boys in the Teso district of Northern Uganda. It was the Arrow Boys who were successfully able to eject Joseph Kony and his LRA (Lord's Resistance Army) from the Teso district and Northern Uganda after a 20 year war.
Once the LRA was ejected, the process of resettlement began with a population of 1.6 million IDP's returning to their villages. However, the process of resettlement began in the camps with all of the dehumanizing elements that are entailed with that existence. Musa realized that the presence of the military was deterring the process of people having the security necessary to return to their villages and "normal" life. As such, he began a process of establishing police outposts transitioning to policing and security in place of military.
This was the key to allowing people after 20 years of war to realize that there was safety in their return to villages and as the outposts expanded so did the safety factor. Musa will be speaking of the affect that policing and security have in returning normalcy to a community/area that military presence cannot.
With Ecweru's experience in dealing with police, military and refugees in Uganda he is expert in understanding the needs of Uganda and how we as North American Security professionals can assist Uganda emerge to a brighter future.
Please join us for what will be an exceptional and unique opportunity not only to meet Mr. Ecweru but to learn about the challenges he overcame and the solutions he was able to provide in the process of resettling the refugees.
The registration form for this meeting is attached and the deadline to register by is Noon on Friday July 24.
