We are a Christian, local, Non-Governmental organization dedicated to working with children, youths, families and their communities to address the root causes of poverty. Fully Realized Child Rights
We are child focused
BAHO Burundi is child-centered, recognising children are extremely vulnerable as they are entirely dependent on their parents or guardians and community to meet their needs and rea
lise their rights. When child rights are violated the consequences are often detrimental and life long
Self Reliant Youth
We recognize early adulthood is a formative time
Adolescence and early adulthood set the foundations of life not only for the individual but also for their future children and spouse. Engaging youths early in vocational training can significantly improve their chances of finding sustainable livelihoods. Awareness of sexual health issues and civic responsibilities ensures that they protect their own health and the health of others and participate in community life. Strong families & Communities
We understand the Church can lead holistic transformation
As a faith-based organisation BAHO’s recognises the influence and potential of the Church for not only spiritual but economic, social and political transformation of communities, families and individuals. Empowered Churches
We know families & community are key to sustainable transformation
BAHO takes a whole of family approach, understanding that sustainable and truly transformational change only happens when mothers, fathers, families and communities are united. When women and men are equals, when families recognize the different needs of each member, when communities are joined in reaching common goals.
