AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Royal Drumming: At Gishora, young apprentices are learning Burundi’s royal drumming tradition, while masters call for better support for performers and protection of the trees used to make drums. Refugee Safety: More than 33,000 Congolese refugees in Busuma face worsening conditions as rain threatens their worn shelters. Defenders at Risk: A new East Africa report, co-produced by SOS-Torture Burundi, documents surveillance and intimidation of human rights defenders who flee across borders. Human Rights: Burundi was elected to the UN Human Rights Council for 2027–29; the country’s criminalization of same-sex relations remains a concern.
