Burundi
World Vision has been working in Burundi for more than five decades. In 1995, we opened our office in Bujumbura, the country’s capital.
Over the past 30 years, our work has transitioned from providing emergency relief to investing in long-term development programmes. To date, we bring hope and assistance to more than 1,000,000 children each year.
Through a wide range of holistic, integrated projects, we work to ensure children and their communities have access to much-needed clean water, education, food, healthcare and the chance to live a life of fullness.
Improving the well-being of children in Burundi regardless of religion, race, ethnicity or gender, is the foundation and the motivation for everything we do.


Ending Child Neglect
In Burundi, too many children are affected daily by neglect. This problem permeates the culture and customs of many families and takes many forms which directly and indirectly impact children's abilities to experience their rights.

It Takes A World
Child neglect is widespread and has detrimental consequences on the lives of children and communities. See how we are working to end child neglect.
