The Ik community is an indigenous person in Uganda that are distinct both in language, livelihood and cultural practices from other ‘Karamajongs’. They live predominately as agriculturalists, although originally hunter gatherers, in the area near Kideppo national park in Kaabong district. During the insecurities in the Karamoja region the Ik community has been negatively affected although not active parties to the conflict.
