* 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.

Burundi 2009 Team training & Now they are off:



News Update: The team have now left for Burundi.

A 15 strong mission team from Scotland set off for Burundi on 14th July for a few weeks.

Team training takes place on the hottest day of the year!

Trainees for the 2009 Burundi team sacrificed much of their day in the searing heat to take part in teams training. The team of 15 in total started early after traveling in from various parts of Scotland and remained late to make sure every detail had been covered before their epic trip to what has become the world's poorest country. A dentist, a doctor and three other medics are part of the team. Members in their teens and those who have retired are mixed together to make this a very versatile and exciting team to be part of.

The team picture shows a couple of folks missing.
