Reuniting families lies at the heart of the International Committee of the Red Cross humanitarian mission. With the support of Rwanda Red Cross & other partners, International Committee of the Red Cross Rwanda helped unaccompanied minors from Nyarushishi Transit Centre reunite with their families in Rubavu/Nyundo, and facilitated the safe cross border reunification of two children from South Kivu via Bujumbura Kigali & Rusizi. Together, we restore safety, dignity, and family unity for children separated by conflict.
