Kakuma: A refugee camp with its own informal economy

Kakuma is one of the world’s largest refugee camps. The 185,000 refugees who live in this remote camp in northwest Kenya are active as employers, consumers, and producers. These refugees have created a significant informal economy -- with a market estimated at $56 million annually.

In partnership with Ireland, the Netherlands, and Norway.
