Her speech, &#8220;Fighting Human Trafficking and Building Hope in Uganda&#8221; is free and open to the campus community, according to Kee Warner, associate vice chancellor for inclusion and academic engagement, Academic Affairs.<\/p>\n<p>Igoye is the founder of numerous organizations designed to improve the lives of women and children worldwide. Her projects include &#8220;Huts for Peace,&#8221; which constructs shelters for women whose homes were destroyed in war-torn communities and &#8220;Coming Home&#8221; a rehabilitation center that provides assistance to orphan children, some of whom were abducted and trafficked. She has trained thousands of law enforcement officers worldwide on migration and human rights issues.<\/p>\n<p>Igoye met with UCCS students visiting Uganda in January. Her visit to UCCS is made possible by the Global Livingston Institute. The institute is named after Johnston R. Livingston, a visionary entrepreneur and philanthropist from Colorado. GLI exists to cultivate a more global understanding of poverty and its impact on fostering more healthy communities.<\/p>\n<p>For more information about the presentation, contact Warner, <a href=\"mailto:kwarner@uccs.edu\">kwarner@uccs.edu<\/a> or 255-3203.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Agnes Igoye, a senior Ugandan immigration officer and a leader in the fight against human trafficking, will speak at 2 p.m. Sept. 28 in University Center 116. <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/communique.uccs.edu\/?p=20742\" title=\"Human trafficking expert to deliver campus address\">(More)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":20744,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[1,12,14],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-20742","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-all","category-events","category-upcoming-events"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/communique.uccs.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Agnes-Igoye-300x4201.jpg","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p1mBpJ-5oy","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/communique.uccs.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20742","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/communique.uccs.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/communique.uccs.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/communique.uccs.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/communique.uccs.edu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=20742"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/communique.uccs.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20742\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":20745,"href":"https:\/\/communique.uccs.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20742\/revisions\/20745"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/communique.uccs.edu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/20744"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/communique.uccs.edu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=20742"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/communique.uccs.edu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=20742"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/communique.uccs.edu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=20742"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
