Finding Friends, Missing Home: Lita’s Story

In Torodi, a region marked by insecurity and social vulnerability, Moussa Birgui’s story illustrates the hardships of forced displacement and the impact of humanitarian aid. In 2023, Moussa, 61, and his family of 22 fled Wasseybangou after violent attacks, burned schools, abductions, and threats of mass killings. Arriving in Torodi, they were welcomed with a house and initial support for internally displaced persons, but aid dwindled over time. Relying on a small, low-yield field, Moussa struggled to feed his family. In 2025, World Vision’s Integrated Emergency & Recovery Assistance project provided food kits with rice, pasta, beans, oil, salt, and sugar for three months. They also received improved seeds and farming tools, giving hope for a better harvest. The intervention not only alleviated immediate needs but restored dignity, resilience, and optimism. Moussa expresses heartfelt gratitude: in the midst of exile, humanitarian support has become a vital source of hope for his family and others facing similar challenges.
