Next month I will be travelling to the Kakuma UNHCR Refugee Camp in Kenya. Kakuma hosts around 200,000 people from more than a dozen different countries - and is a place that many residents of #MelbsWest have passed through on the way to Australia.

We are excited to see Kakuma United FC (a team of the best players from the Kakuma Premiere League) playing in Kenyan National Division League for the first time. No team from a refugee camp has ever participated in such a league. Incredible opportunity! x.com/LWF_Ke/status/…
