One night in April this year, Dolly, her single mother, Gloria Makwakwa, and two siblings, fled to the Chatsworth displacement camp in Durban, KwaZuluNatal along with hundreds of other foreign nationals, after a spate of xenophobic attacks across the city. ?Mozambican-born Gloria, now a hairdresser, came to South ?Africa as a young woman with no family links ‘back home’ after her parents died. Dolly was born in Durban in 2006. Dolly has now lost weeks of schooling. She misses her friends and teachers terribly. Dolly like many of the other 300 children in the Chatsworh camp don’t understand xenophobia – but they bear the brunt all the same. Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is an international, independent, medical humanitarian organisation that delivers emergency aid to people affected by armed conflict, epidemics, natural disasters and exclusion from healthcare.
