About Burundi

Burundi is a small, landlocked country located in East Africa

Bordered by Rwanda, Tanzania, and the Democratic Republic of Congo. Despite its natural beauty, rich culture, and vibrant traditions, Burundi faces significant challenges. Decades of political instability, conflict, and limited access to essential resources have left many communities struggling with extreme poverty.

Agriculture is the backbone of the economy, with most people relying on subsistence farming to survive. However, this sector is vulnerable to climate change, leading to food insecurity in many regions. Access to education and healthcare remains limited, and a lack of infrastructure exacerbates the difficulties faced by the population.

Yet, Burundi is also a country of resilience and hope. Its people are known for their warmth, strong sense of community, and dedication to overcoming adversity. At Burundi Action, we are committed to supporting the people of Burundi in their efforts to build a brighter future, focusing on sustainable solutions that address both immediate needs and long-term challenges.
