All week, The World has brought you an investigative series about orphanages, also known as children’s homes, in Uganda.
These homes have proliferated in the country, despite the fact that, even in the best of circumstances, they are not considered healthy for children.

The World’s host Carolyn Beeler talks to Gikandi about how she undertook this reporting, and how donors can better vet the international children’s organizations they financially support.
