Nederland Comite Burundi (Stitching) The NCB is a foundation, which was set up to contribute to peace in Burundi, and to promote Burundi in the Netherlands. The NCB was set up after 1993, when the civil war took place in Burundi. Now, the country has a democratic elected government, but the peace process is fragile. Burundi is one of the poorest countries in the world, and international help for reconstruction is important. The NCB attempts to contribute to this process. The NCB organizes projects in Burundi that contribute to dialogue and awareness. Since 2006, the foundation also organizes sustainable reconstruction activities. The NCB is free of any religious, political or other view. The NCB is neutral with respect to all conflicts that currently take place in the country. The goals of the NCB are twofold: • Contribute to peace, conflict prevention, conflict control, reconciliation and economic development in Burundi • Provide information about Burundi and its people to Dutch citizens.

It is a foundation, set up in the Netherlands in 2001. Women are underrepresented in government positions and organizations. The traditional role of women as a peace-contributing group is often ignored. BWPD wants to enhance recognition of women and self-development of the youth to overcome the crisis in Burundi. Education and training for women should be improved. Communication should be enhanced, and women should talk about their experiences. Also, women should be integrated into the Dutch society to make a difference. The goals of BWPD are: - Integration of women in the Netherlands 72
