The programme “Il était un foi” featured two members of our Burundian team: Léonidas Mbanzamihigo, director, and Belyse Munezero, the doctor in charge of health projects on the ground.

Together, they discuss the difficulties of accessing healthcare in the country, the importance of educating women about their own health and that of their children, and the role of women in society.

Now more than ever, we need funding to keep these projects going.
