National Council of Churches of Burundi

The Secret of our success

The confidence of beneficiaries

The churches are with the people everywhere in the country, even when they live in miserable situations. They respond to their real spiritual, psychological, physical, and even emotional needs.

The confidence of other governmental and non governmental organisations

Because of the efficiency of the services rendered by CNEB social workers and coordinators spread in all provinces, there is a tendency of solliciting the council to be the focal point of intervention in all provinces. As of today, we are the focal point in Kayanza, Rutana, and Gitega provinces, while we serve in all the 17 provinces of Burundi.
