Aduk Dau:’Some lost boys even refused to give us their UN's registration back in Kakuma'

When the civil war broke out in Sudan in 1983, the events that followed the war were horrific and difficult when one was to look back. One result of the war is the story of the many South Sudanese who left their homelands to Ethiopian between 1987 and 1990. In all the challenges, many of the children made it out of the suffering but many did not. In early 2000 or late 1990s, a project was started to resettle many of the unaccompanied minors who were living in Kakuma refugee camp. The resettlement process helped many of these young people to have another chance of life in the United States. Among those who helped these youth was Aduk Dau Duot who later migrated to Australia. Recently Adut went to the United States where she was able to meet many of these young men who are now adults. Here is the interview of Aduk and two lost boys Dhieu Deng Leek and Aleu Deng.
