* About Burundi
About Burundi
Burundi is one of the world's poorest nations and is now rebuilding following civil war since 1972.
Burundi-outline-small
Burundi has an estimated population of around 8 million, approximately half of whom are aged 14 or less. The effects of AIDS and cival war has had a significant effect on the demographics of the country.

There is now peace since elections in 2005, but the country still faces the formidable challenges of reviving a shattered economy and of forging national unity with up to 500,000 refugees now returning from camps in Tanzania and Kenya.

Each week we introduce you to the children of Hope Centre Burundi. We upload a picture of one child and give you their story.

Yvan Nkunzimana


Yvan's Story

Yvan is 12 years old.

In this photograph are Yvan (holding the baby), and in the front from left to right, his sister Solange, cousins, Kevin and Jimmy. Yvan is currently living with a family upcountry who are taking care of him until the Hope Centre is completed.

When Yvan was 4 years old his parents were taken out of the house and killed during a time of severe ethnic infighting in Burundi. There were many orphaned children in his village and Pastor Leonard took Yvan to live with him. Unfortunately Yvan didn’t start school until he was 9 and had some problems so he is still in primary two.
