YOUTH SOLIDARITY FOR DEVELOPMENT

Tuvugane is a youth networking platform aimed at advancing contributions towards the development of Burundi and Burundian communities, fostering coexistence, and preserving Burundian culture and the Kirundi language.

Through communication, we believe we can empower each other to reach our full potential. Part of this process is to celebrate each other's accomplishments and encourage one another to continue serving our communities and each other diligently.

Vision: To be a platform that empowers Burundian youth to reach their full potential and enables them to witness the development of Burundi as a country and as a people. We aim to develop a community of Burundian diaspora youth who are equipped with the knowledge and courage to return to, build, invest, and reintegrate in Burundi.

Mission: To advance contributions towards the development of Burundi and Burundian communities, foster coexistence, and preserve Burundian culture and the Kirundi language.

Tuvugane encourages all programs that broaden the spheres of culture, society, and education through:

Cultural Awareness:

Tuvugane focuses on increasing awareness of the diversity of Burundi as a country and its people. We are committed to sharing the richness of Burundi with other communities. Most importantly, we encourage Burundian youth to embrace their culture and traditions through their skills and talents.

Social Awareness:

Tuvugane encourages interaction between members of the organization and individuals of different races, religions, beliefs, and opinions. We strive to make the organization a safe space and a tool for learning. It serves as a platform where youth from various fields of experience can meet, discuss, and exchange ideas in the spirit of unity and humanity. Tuvugane wholeheartedly aspires to create an environment where youth can realize their full potential and foster coexistence among all Burundian groups, both in the diaspora and in Burundi.

Educational Awareness:

Tuvugane supports the educational endeavors of all members of society by celebrating both academic and professional achievements. We champion Burundian excellence and are dedicated to closing the gender gap in education.
