Saving South Sudan's Lost Girls

Outlook

Available for over a year

For many years Ugandan nurse Cathy Groenendijk worked for aid organisations in Uganda, Rwanda, and then in 2006, Sudan. The country had just emerged from a twenty-year civil war that had displaced and orphaned thousands of children - the so-called Lost Boys. But when Cathy went to Juba, she discovered there were many Lost Girls too. They told her distressing stories, stories that changed Cathy's life. (Picture credit: Cathy Groenendijk.)
