Description


My Education, My Future: Supporting Burundian Refugee Girls’ Education (MEMF) is a four-year (2020-2025), $6.9 million, gender-responsive education project for girls affected by the Burundian refugee crisis in Burundi and Tanzania. This initiative is being implemented by Right To Play International (RTP), in partnership with the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC). The project will work towards the ultimate outcome of improved learning outcomes for girls, including girls with disabilities, affected by the Burundian crisis and living in refugee camps in Tanzania and repatriated communities in Burundi.
