FACTS from UNHCR: The population is increasing in the Kabazana Reception Centre, one of many in the Nakivale Refugee Settlement. Last week (Feb. 1-7, 2025) another 17 children and adults were resettled in Kabazana, increasing the packed village to 1,147 people — 868 Burundians, 244 Congolese and 35 Rwandans. What to do? Stand up for life-saving AID! In the meantime, ask Shabombo Ndeke Yannick, a refugee with a strong background in conflict resolution. To stem the tide of suffering, Shabombo Ndeke Yannick, a refugee with a background in conflict resolution, has created an International Cities of Peace (ICP) Peace Team in Kabazana Section C. His vision: “To unite and empower youths as active agents of peace, social cohesion, and sustainable development….” ICP Agents of Peace around the globe are in essential volunteer service to Humanity.
