From 1998 until 2018, ARM Burundi executed assistance and development projects for the Batwa in the provinces of Mwaro (Ndava commune) and Gitega (Giheta, Gitega and Itaba communes). The activities consisted of adult literacy in 50 households, support in agriculture and the schooling of their children. Today, ARM Burundi has no funding to continue supporting the Batwa in its area of intervention. Occasionally, ARM Burundi only gives them food, clothes and gifts for children in schools or churches.
