Buduburam Refugee Concerns International

Since the recent crisis that has been unfolding in the Buduburam refugee settlement, The Niapele Project has associated itself with a coalition of NGOs and individuals with ties to Buduburam in order to advocate on behalf of the refugee community. In order to offer a platform for news and resources, we have launched a new website, which we encourage you to visit - check it out here.

The Niapele Project will continue to be a part of this effort - while we remained primarily focused on the development of our initiatives, we are proud to associate ourselves with this worthwhile cause.


Here are a couple photos of the Kordiabe Youth Training Center, where the 650+ refugee women and children were detained for 2 weeks in March - we will post more on the BRCInternational website in the coming days - as the site is brand new, continue to check back for updates and additional resources! www.brcinternational.org
