To strengthen local resilience and promote inclusive development, GRS is establishing a modern Community Training Centre in Gitaba Zone, Rutana Commune, located in the newly created Province of Burunga, South-Eastern Burundi

The purpose of this new centre is to offer community-focused training and support in the following key areas:

  • Social Behaviour Change: Promoting positive attitudes and practices for harmonious living.
  • Skills Development: Equipping youth and marginalized groups with vocational and entrepreneurial skills.
  • Psychological Counseling and Orientation: Providing care and guidance for victims of gender-based violence.
  • Youth Space: Creating a safe, engaging environment for young people to learn, connect, and express themselves.
  • Capacity Building: Strengthening community capacities for sustainable development and self-reliance.

This initiative reflects GRS’s ongoing commitment to transforming lives through education, empowerment, and community support.
