Olivia Arthur | Making Ground Stella Numa, 30, is a seamstress and runs one of the many businesses that have popped up along the main high street in Amuria. “I have had this business for two and a half years. I’m from Katakwi,
(...) I moved here because I have a lot of different relatives including my father here. I have many reasons to like it here, firstly because in my area we have a lot of problems with the Karamajong. Because of the LRA many people went to Katakwi, but once they were chased away people went back here to Amuria, so there are many people here. Business is busy at special times like Christmas, Easter or New Year as everyone wants new clothes.” Amuria, Uganda. 2009. © Olivia Arthur | Magnum Photos
