Abstract:
According to the Centre for International Governance and
Innovation, it is documented that the world has about
650million refugees and displaced persons. With a series of
conflicts breaking out daily across the world, this number
has high chances of increasing. In the meantime, as crises
continue to occur, the worst has been witnessed with some
states restricting and others blocking the entry of vulnerable
people. Uganda is among the few states that have stood to
shoulder the burden of refugees, which might be detrimental
to national security. This study was about assessing the
relationship between the influx of refugees and the national
security of Uganda
