Action for Peace and Development (APD)

History

Action for Peace and Development (APD) was set up by a group of university students and young professionals who wanted to create a new type of not-for-profit organization, with a special focus on facilitation of dialogue and diverse interactions for young people from different backgrounds, to support the peace process and help build an emerging democratic society in Burundi.

APD intends to establish a new type of working culture in civil society, with a high level of individual commitment, transparency and a long-term mission which guides the organization’s everyday activities.
