Invisible Children doesn’t stop at documenting atrocities or activating youth or protecting civilians or rehabilitating post-conflict communities. We do it all. And we do it through a four-part model that focuses exclusively on the LRA conflict, addressing it in its entirety: immediate needs and long-term effects. One of the four parts of the comprehensive model is Protection.

Due to the lack of infrastructure in the region, communities throughout central Africa are completely isolated. Our Protection initiatives include building and expanding radio networks that warn remote communities of LRA attacks, and also encouraging the LRA to defect peacefully through broadcasting personalized radio messages and dispersing defection fliers.

WASH provides rural communities in northern Uganda with access to safe drinking water and improves the sanitation and hygiene of group members, their households, and the community. The initiative includes drilling safe water points, appointing a “water user committee” to maintain the water point, and training community members on basic health practices.

Since 2005, the LRA has been poaching elephants in Garamba National Park and using the elephants’ ivory to fund their operations and continue killing innocent civilians in central Africa. Through defection flier messaging, we are directly targeting groups in the park, asking them to lay down their arms and peacefully surrender. 79% of defectors in the past year have cited these fliers as influential in their escape.
