Pebalo Francis Pebolo makes a field visit to Kitgum General Hospital in preparation for a VVF (vesicovaginal fistula) repair camp organised by Gulu Regional Referral Hospital with support from UNFPA (United Nation Family Planning Association). Fistula is a major problem in Uganda and is mainly a result of prolonged obstructed labour. The Ministry of Health, through national and regional referral, carries out fistula repair camps throughout the country with support from UNFPA, AMREF and other partners.
