Article Synopsis
  • A pilot intervention called "Lending a Hand" was implemented in two towns in southwestern Uganda to help young recent migrants (ages 14-24) manage risks associated with migration by providing a supportive environment and resources.
  • The program included training peer supporters to assist young migrants by offering practical help, emotional support, and guidance, informed by a protection-risk framework.
  • Through interviews with 20 young migrants, three key themes emerged: improved access to healthcare services, personalized support, and the establishment of social networks, demonstrating the effectiveness of peer support in enhancing health and social services for young migrants.
