Over 100,000 people from a dozen countries live in the Nakivale Refugee Settlement, Uganda’s oldest camp for the dispossessed. Here you’ll find Shadowman partner Opportunigee helping to lift fellow exiles via practical training – in everything from farming to entrepreneurship – and cultural expression – such as Join the Moves dance class with Aubin.
“The most important thing about this bottle project, why I love it so much, is it’s helping families earn a little. We’re helping clean up the environment.”

“It’s hard to make necklaces, but gradually I am feeling easy. And it’s interesting work! When I completed my first necklace, I felt proud of myself. I like the design of my own style.”
Shadowman is parked outside of the densely populated refugee camps within South Bangladesh, where the Mermake Creative Hub exists as a cultural-community center space serving both nationals and Rohingya populations. Mosheda and many others have taken their learned craft skills to start small businesses.
