Hope For All Association

The most vulnerable people in Burundi

Violence, poverty, exclusion: they shatter lives, families and entire communities. Understanding what the most fragile go through is already the beginning of helping them.

Silence

Why so many victims stay silent

On the hills as in the city, shame and the fear of rejection prevent many rape victims from speaking out. Some fear being driven out of their home, others do not know who to turn to.

Silence deepens the wounds: without care or support, suffering takes hold, sometimes for years.

The obstacles

Care and rights that are still too hard to access

Distance, the cost of transport and care, lack of information: many widows, single mothers and people with disabilities give up on seeing a doctor. Access to justice also remains a difficult path, especially far from the cities.

That is why Hope For All goes to people where they live and covers the costs they cannot bear.

Hope

With support, victims become survivors

Cared for, listened to, surrounded, people regain confidence and find their place again. Many start a small business, support others and in turn become agents of change on their hill.
