RWANDA: INCLUSIVE ACCESS TO BASIC EDUCATION FOR DISPLACED CHILDREN AND YOUTH IN RWANDA

As a result of political unrest in their country, 80 000 Burundians have fled to Rwanda. Most of them are living in refugee camps along the border, but others have moved into town, where they themselves have to find somewhere to live, and also pay for medical care, food and their children’s education. However, the high prices in Rwanda make this impossible for most refugees, rendering them dependent on help in order to make ends meet. But they have not given up hope of soon being able to return home.

The project in brief:

Under this project, which runs from 2021 to 2024, 320 children from refugee and disadvantaged families will have access to a kindergarten and/or elementary school near their homes. The registration fees (including school meals) as well as the school uniform and material are paid by CSI. Since some of the students are traumatized by the painful events in Burundi or by the death of a parent, they are entitled to psychological support when needed.

 This project aims not only to provide access to the kindergarten but also to free the parents to work. In the many cases where the mother or father takes care of the children alone, it is particularly important that the children are taken care of so that the parent can earn money to support the family.

Project budget:

Total project cost (2021-2024): €600 000

80% of this amount will be provided by the Luxembourg Foreign Ministry. The rest (€120 000) will be covered by CSI together with the partner organisation.
