KAKUMA - FISHING IN THE DESERT
by Laura Sicignano
produced by IIC Nairobi / Teatro Nazionale Genova
English translation © 2023 Alta L. Price
The term “Refugee camp” often pops up in public discourse, but who truly knows how a camp works and what living conditions are like on the inside? My name is Laura Sicignano, I’m an Italian theater director, and my work has long dealt with migration. This podcast is about my trip to Kakuma, one of the largest refugee camps in the world, on the border between Kenya and South Sudan. I tell the story of the camp through my own eyes, and those of the aid workers there—ordinary people who’ve made extraordinary life choices.
“Kakuma: Fishing in the Desert” is a podcast by Laura Sicignano. It was produced by the Italian Cultural Institute of Nairobi and the Teatro Nazionale di Genova, which also produced the theatrical play upon which this podcast is based. Narration by Leda Kreider. Original music by Uhuru Republic; sound and music production by Filoq. The translation from Italian into English is by Alta Price. Special thanks to the Jesuit Refugee Service.

30 GIU 2023 · In June 2022 I went to a refugee camp called Kakuma. I undertook this journey out of a need to rethink the meaning of my being in the world. What drove me to Kakuma—a reality completely different from my own—was an awareness of my privilege.
Trascritto
30 GIU 2023 · KAKUMA: 270,000 people. The average length of stay in the camp is 26 years. Average temperature in Kakuma: 95 to 113 Fahrenheit, year round. The UNHCR gives refugees corrugated metal sheets so they can build their own homes. 84% of families in the camp have an insufficient water supply. 97% of the camp’s population cooks on wood or charcoal fires. 73% of households have no access to electricity.

30 GIU 2023 · In order to fully capture my journey to Kakuma, my own point of view wouldn’t suffice. I therefore decided to meet a few of the humanitarian aid workers in Kakuma and talk about the camp through their perspective, as inside observers.

30 GIU 2023 · From 2020 to mid-2022, the number of refugees in the world grew from 27.1 million to 32.5 million. According to UNHCR, in 2023 Kakuma is the largest refugee camp in the world, but there are three others in Kenya: these four camps are among the top 10 most populous on the planet. Tens of thousands of workers are employed all around the world on missions that often put their safety at risk.

30 GIU 2023 · In telling this story, we hear the voices of the refugees. Fabien: a young man who will be given the opportunity to be “resettled,” meaning he’ll be permitted to leave the camp and go to a rich country. The Fishing in the Desert kids: they’re a group of young people who’ve launched an agricultural-aquacultural project that helps improve the refugees’ nutritional conditions.
