ALERT: HUMAN RIGHTS IN DANGER!

REPRESSION AND GENOCIDAL DYNAMICS IN BURUNDI

FIDH and its Burundian member organisation, the ITEKA League, have just published a new report on Burundi. This 200-page document is the result of 18 months of investigation and analysis. It shows how far President Nkurunziza’s government has advanced in its criminal actions to hold on to power by any means possible.

The situation in Burundi is extremely serious. Crimes against humanity are presently being committed and there is a real risk of genocide. Since April 2015, those opposing the government have been hunted down, killed, tortured, raped, or made to disappear, often in centres for secret torture.

If only for once, we can act before it is too late?

Burundi – a small, little-known African country – needs us.

By acting together, we could save thousands of lives!
