Contents Summary

Julia Harrington of the Institute for Human Rights and Development in The Gambia is given a tour of a refugee camp in Waterloo, outside of Freetown, Sierra Leone. The tour leader, John Foday, discusses many aspects of life in the refugee camp such as health and education, employment, the institutional structure of the camp, as well as general quality of life for the refugees. There is footage of the camp and refugees taken throughout the interview, mostly taken while walking, so that the camera is moving much of the time. While the structures are ramshackle, for the most part the refugees look relatively healthy and happy.
