For Christian Aid Week 2024, Christian Aid are highlighting their work in Burundi, one of the poorest countries in the world financially, and one of the least prepared to combat the effects of climate crisis.
With a fragile economy built on agriculture, people in Burundi find themselves in a precarious position in the face of droughts, floods and landslides.
The global cost of living crisis has intensified the challenges families face. More than 70% of the population live in poverty, and 52% of children are chronically malnourished.
Christian Aid know they can’t solve every problem that our neighbours in Burundi will face, but with support, more families are building reliable and diverse incomes that are bringing them food security, better health, safer homes, increased resilience and hope.
To do our part, some church members are doing a 10,000-a-day step challenge – should you wish to donate then please follow the link below which will direct you to our JustGiving page… thank you.
