Life for Uganda's war displaced
'Our cramped life'
Many women complain that camp life encourages alcoholism amongst their men folk.
As money is scarce, the concoction of choice is a 'home brew' made from sorghum, millet and cassava.
Camp leader Mr Alengo admits, "I drink a lot, like the other men. We drink to pass the time in this our cramped life. We relax and we can forget."
Men often reminisce about how life was better before coming to the camps, when they were the ones in control.

'The masters'
"The women are the ones in charge now. They are suffering the most but they are the masters," Mr Alengo says, admitting the women are the hard workers.
The women seldom have time to sit and talk. They cook, clean, wash, care, fetch and carry - be it water or firewood or thatching grass.
They also make sure they are registered to collect their family's food aid rations, in case the men sell them to buy beer.
Feeling more empowered, the women say wife-beating is now less of a problem.
