In the East African community, in Kenya’s northwestern Turkana County, a Kakuma refugee camp with almost 200,000 people, lives the LGBTQIA+ community, which continues to face unprovoked attacks, harassment, and heavy discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity. The transphobia and homophobia within these refugee camps have claimed numerous lives and left many community members with grave physical and psychological injuries. I have been able to integrate myself into the community of Block 13 and understand their struggles due to the political climate and gender issues. They have been refused medical attention by doctors and suffered attacks from surrounding refugees. As they have suffered from a scarcity of food and medication, I have been able to partially alleviate such inhumane circumstances with paracetamol, vitamins, painkillers, cough and flu medicine, sanitary pads, blankets, rice, beans, sugar, maize flour, cooking oil, and wheat flour. I have been able to attract over 1,000 participants who are advocating for their fundamental human rights. As I understand how their struggles are intrinsically linked to governance and political climate, I wish to help reform policies and provide aid assistance on a larger scale by working in the United Nations.
