Kacoke Madit (KM) – an organisation set up by Acholi people living in the diaspora in response to the escalation of the northern Uganda conflict – has repeated its call on the government of Uganda to extend a blanket amnesty as an important means of confidence-building with the Lord’s Resistance Army and other groups. However, KM has stressed that amnesty is only one element among many required for supporting a broader peace settlement. KM publishes a regular newsletter focusing on issues relating to the conflict.
