LOST BOYS

John Manyok and Samuel Mathon are survivors of the civil war in Sudan. “The Lost Boys of Sudan,” travelled by foot for more than 1,000 kilometres through the bush and across the deserts, first to Ethiopia and then back to southern Sudan and on to Kenya, searching for safety. Just 10,000 boys are estimated to have survived the years-long threats of soldiers, wild animals, illness and starvation they endured during the conflict.  They are now social workers having graduated with a degree in Social Work from the University of Calgary - Lethbridge campus.
