Sumy Sadurni, Photojournalist Whose Focus Was East Africa, Dies at 32

She traveled the world, but she was best known for the photographs she took in Uganda,

which brought pathos and humanity to charged subject matter.

Due to her own experience, she helps other survivors.

Acid attack survivors in Uganda - in pictures

Acid attacks have been on the rise in Uganda.

Organisations such as End Acid Violence Uganda

are pushing for a law that would see

harsher punishments for perpetrators such as a ‘no bail policy’,

satisfactory compensation for victims,

and implementation of a medical care policy

paid for by the government.

End Acid Violence Uganda officers

make regular home visits to survivors

to offer support and guidance.
