However, during the COVID-19 pandemic when many NGOs were recalled or faced restrictions, RLOs stepped up to fill the gaps and their presence was very much welcomed.\r\n\r\nWhen asked if RLOs will continue to have prominence after the pandemic, Abis Getachew (lead researcher in Ethiopia) said that RLOs will continue to have stakes as they have had an impact on communities. He added that it\u2019s hard to know for sure what RLO activities will look like until data has been collected.\r\n\r\nUwezo Ramazani (lead researcher in Tanzania) shared that most RLOs start as self-help groups. Some are eager to get funding from outside groups, but are often unsuccessful, so they struggle to get funds for their sustenance.\r\n\r\n[cu_shortcodes_modal_link modal_type=\"video\" video_url=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=idC6Df4cSP0\" link_text=\"Click here to watch a full recording of this webinar.\" modal_title=\"A refugee-led study on refugee-led organisations l RSC Michaelmas Term 2021 Public Seminar Series\" \/]\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/lerrn\/wp-content\/uploads\/03-Nov-2021-RSC-Webinar-Slides.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Click here to view the presentation slides from this webinar.<\/a>\r\n\r\nFor more info on the Evaluation of Refugee-Led Organisations from LERRN, RSC and CLS, <a href=\"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/lerrn\/lerrn-rsc-cls-evaluation-of-rlos\">Click Here<\/a>.","post_title":"RSC Webinar: A Refugee-Led Study on Refugee-Led Organizations in East Africa","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"rsc-webinar-rlo-study-east-africa","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2026-04-07 13:41:07","post_modified_gmt":"2026-04-07 17:41:07","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/lerrn\/?p=4374","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},"button_event_link":false,"button_video_link":false,"button_external_link":""}]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/lerrn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/4357"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/lerrn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/lerrn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/lerrn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/lerrn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4357"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/lerrn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/4357\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7323,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/lerrn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/4357\/revisions\/7323"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/lerrn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/8834"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/lerrn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4357"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
