Miremba and her family’s farming was ground to a halt when an oil refinery opened in her district of Hoima, Uganda in 2012. She was poorly compensated for her land and home, and lives in fear of being evicted. Despite this, Miremba stands strong in the face of adversity, ensuring her voice is heard. With support from Womankind partner, National Associations of Professional Environmentalists (NAPE), Miremba is a women’s group leader, working tirelessly to help other women speak out about forced evictions.
