The American Refugee Committee (ARC) has undertaken an initiative to build stronger working relationships with the local government through recreation and leisure.Fredrick Auger, its Country Director, said it becomes more meaningful when a friendly mutual relationship is established between developmental partners. "Knowing your counterparts helps you to develop the capacity to share ideas on how to work, thereby enabling one to achieve the set targets,” Auger told The New Times in an interview.Last week, Auger and his team held fruitful discussions preceded by a football match between the leadership of Karongi district, which hosts Kiziba refugee camp where ARC operates. The Mayor of Karongi district Bernard Kayumba also participated.
