Article-Summary: 

There are hundreds of thousands desperate to restart their lives if a peace deal between the Ugandan government and Lord's Resistance Army rebels is signed. This month the two sides renewed a landmark truce, paving the way for an end to a two-decade war that has killed tens of thousands of people and displaced nearly two million. Some refugees feel confident about going home but aid agencies say the problems of resettlement are daunting.
