“They see me as a female officer, as a mother, a sister and everything to them.” For Orowo Regina Omuyeh, serving as a police officer with UNMISS is a chance to protect other women and inspire them to achieve their own dreams. She works with fellow officers to protect displaced families who sought sanctuary in UN protection sites during the South Sudan civil war. Today, she shared her story with UN Police Advisor, Luis Carrilho, who is visiting the country to see first-hand the work his officers are doing to protect civilians and build durable peace as part of the UN’s Action for Peacekeeping plan.
