Our Impact
10x The average income
At Zawadie, our mission is to provide refugees at the Dzaleka Refugee camp with the tools and resources to build a sustainable future. Our program supports them in gaining skills, generate a small income, and Improve their living conditions.
Key Facts & Statistics
Dzaleka Camp is home to approximately 60,000 refugees from the Democratic Republic of Congo, Burundi, Rwanda, Somalia, and Ethiopia, each facing extraordinary challenges. With only $7.60 a month to cover their expenses, and 99% lacking access to adequate resources, survival is a daily struggle. Compounding their difficulties, residents are prohibited from working or starting businesses outside the camp, trapping them in a cycle of poverty. The path to resettlement can take up to 16 years, leaving many in prolonged uncertainty.
