VII. THE (S) GREATEST SUCCESS OF THE ACTIVITIES CARRIED OUT IN THIS PROJECT
The greatest success of our activities is that the beneficiaries have welcomed this project of access to the right and the justice although it comes at an opportune moment where Burundi is preparing for the elections of 2020 and that the population needs to know and realize their rights.
VIII. PROBLEMS ENCOUNTERED
In general, the financial means remain a major problem to sustain these products that the project has already reached and make new initiatives such as the installation and equipment of legal clinics in other provinces, the creation of clubs of " right for all, justice for all "in schools and universities, the insertion by entrepreneurship of vulnerable people, the promotion of the right to health of these vulnerable people, the payment of rent and the salaries of legal clinicians who help in legal assistance.
IX. MEASURES TAKEN TO RAISE THIS CHALLENGE (S) AND
We continue to ask our donors to continue to support this project and become recurring or monthly donors to better impact the community through this project.
X. LESSONS LEARNED
As lessons learned in all the activities carried out in these two months, it was then noted that the general population and the vulnerable people in particular wish to hold such meetings of legal assistance in several frequencies. This could certainly bring about a change in the building of a better future free from ignorance of the laws as well as the promotion of the intra-personal values of integrity, respect and the exercise of human rights and duties. since some of them evoked facts that they did not even know were respected or punishable by law.
XI. NEXT STEPS
For the next activity, we plan:
· Create "right for all, justice for all" clubs in 3 high schools and 3 universities;
· Install 5 legal clinic centers in 5 Provinces (KIRUNDO, MUYINGA, BUJUMBURA, RUMONGE, MURAMVYA) and we need $ 500 + $ 500 running so $ 1000;
· Purchase of 50 health insurance cards (CAMs) for 50 vulnerable people for their access to health care by promoting the right to health for $ 500
· Economic integration program for 100 vulnerable people grouped into a group of 10 people through entrepreneurship for $ 2000;
· Extension of the program of education and training in human rights, peaceful conflict resolution, civic education and peace $ 670;
· Sensitization and extension workshop on the law on combating rape and sexual and gender-based violence $ 300;
· Human Rights Week on the occasion of the celebration of the 71 st anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights $ 400;
Total for these next steps = $ 1000 + $ 500 + $ 2000 + $ 670 + $ 300 + $ 400 = $ 4870
Give Monthly to double your impact.
AVAPRSD thank you very, very much.
