WOI projects

On Monday and Tuesday of last week Robyn, Sophie and I accompanied our colleague Patrick upcountry to visit some of the projects of WOI. Along with the Radio station and the recording studio, WOI runs several health clinics, and has built some schools and shelters.


This is the WOI office in Ruyigi, which is on the other side of Burundi near the Tanzanian border.


WOI is working with UNHCR to construct these shelters for people who have returned to Burundi after the war.



This is one of the schools that WOI has constructed.


To the left of the students is our colleague Patrick who is overseeing the construction of the shelter project.
