Wide shots of the immense Hagadera Camp

• Kenya
• Dadaab

Description

A wide shot of the camp reveals its immensity. For years, Kenya has threatened to shut the sprawling Dadaab Camp, a crowded, sweltering realm near Kenya’s border with Somalia that has been a refuge for desperate people since Somalis began fleeing to Kenya in 1991, when their country was plunged into civil war.
A Kenyan judge ruled that the Kenyan government’s contentious plan to close Dadaab, the world’s largest refugee camp, was “illegal” and “discriminatory,” and that the refugees could not be forcefully relocated.
