Over 2 million displaced people (IDPs, or "internal refugees") have fled the terror attacks in Burkina Faso.
Often severely traumatised by the harrowing things they have experienced, they have left their homes, fields, and possessions, and moved to larger towns to seek refuge. They arrive with few possessions, and no way to support themselves. In the places where they settle, they struggle to get access to food, water, shelter, schooling, or medical help.
APT's partners in Burkina are bringing food, clothing, and bedding to those arriving in their communities, as well as providing access to trauma healing for those in need. £40 can buy a sack of grain to feed a family for a month.
APT is standing with our partners in support for this help to the displaced in Burkina in 2023-24. We would be very grateful for anything you can do to help.
Thank you
