Description :
The crisis in Burundi has driven thousands of people to flee to neighbouring Rwanda, Tanzania and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). Many have lost track of their loved ones in all the upheaval, and are desperate to find out what happened to them. In these difficult circumstances, children have found themselves without their parents' protection at a time when they need it most. Some 14,000 Burundian refugees now live in Lusenda camp in the province of South Kivu in eastern DRC. The ICRC and the National Red Cross Society are working in the camp to help people trace and contact their loved ones.
A Red Cross message is a brief, hand-written message containing family news
