Using a life history approach, 26 Northern Ugandan health workers with experience working in the public and private not-for-profit (PNFP) sectors were interviewed to reveal their experiences both during and after the Northern Uganda conflict and to better understand what influenced these health workers to move between these two sectors. Most workers moved from the PNFP to the public sector, as during the conflict PNFP was more stable and offered better quality training. After the conflict, the public sector was rebuilt and offered more for health care workers.
