Two kindergartners enjoy their serving of “bouillie,” a floury porridge provided every morning at schools in Gasorwe Refugee Camp in Burundi’s eastern province of Muyinga. The breakfast provides a major incentive for many of the children to attend school.

The IRC in Burundi

Recovering from years of civil war, Burundians are hopeful for peace after two democratic elections. With hundreds of thousands returning home after the conflict, the International Rescue Committee encourages stability by protecting and reunifying families as they resettle and by providing them with the supplies and skills they need to move forward.
