The 77 Percent - The Magazine for Africa's Youth

December 7, 2023

The 77 Percent visits Kakuma, a town which hosts one of Kenya's largest refugee camps. We meet young people from South Sudan, Burundi and DRC whose lives have been disrupted by conflict and politics. Outside of Kenya, we find out how young people in South Africa are dealing with xenophobia and we meet queer Ugandan artist, Delovie Kwagala.
