Building safe spaces for Early Childhood Education in Tanzania
Nyarugusu Camp in Northwestern Tanzania is home to over 66,000 people, providing refuge to Congolese and Burundians who fled fighting in their home countries since the 1990s. Many of the 40,000 children who live in Nyarugusu have spent their whole life in the camp. Prior to the IRC programme many of these children had no opportunity to go to school, and those who did had no access to proper facilities.
