Our work in Burundi
In Burundi, we work with national armed forces that are deployed on peacekeeping missions, as well as security forces, universities and other key parties to promote respect for international humanitarian law and fundamental humanitarian principles. We also collaborate with the Burundi Red Cross to put refugees back in touch with family members that they have lost contact with because of armed conflict in the region.
Our activities in Burundi are supported by the ICRC’s regional delegation in Kampala, which covers operations in Uganda, Rwanda and Burundi, as well as the regional delegations in Nairobi and Dakar.
