This platform provided a mutual ground for both communities to express their challenges, recommendations and find solutions to issues that affect livelihood, education, security, health and environment in Rhino Camp Refugee Settlement.

Some of the topics include; awareness on environmental degradation, health seeking behaviour of refugees and host communities, access to education services, awareness on SGBV, increasing community vigilance on personal and household security among others
