This thesis is a contribution to a hitherto neglected area of research: The Pentecostal Churches, that are not part of African Indigenous Churches (AICs). It is a case study from the perspective of southern Burundi, the periphery of the ancient kingdom. The Pentecostal Movement in Burundi was born in the encounter between Swedish Pentecostal missionaries and the population in the southern part of the country. This study highlights what happened in that encounter. The thesis consists of six parts. The first is a survey if the Pentecostal Movement in Sweden.

  • BURUNDI – Complex Emergency
    U.S. AGENCY FOR INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT BUREAU FOR HUMANITARIAN RESPONSE (BHR) OFFICE OF U.S. FOREIGN DISASTER ASSISTANCE (OFDA) BURUNDI – Complex Emergency Situation Report #1, Fiscal Year (FY) 2002 October 3, 2001 Note: this situation report updates Information Bulletin #1 for FY 2001 dated July 3, 2001 BACKGROUND The Tutsi minority, who represent 14% of Burundi’s total 6.6 million people, have dominated the country’s political, military, and economic arenas since national independence in 1962. Approximately 85% of Burundi’s population is Hutu, and approximately 1% is Batwa. In October 1993, the current cycle of violence began when members of the Tutsi-dominated army assassinated the first freely elected President, Melchoir Ndadaye (Hutu), sparking Hutu-Tutsi fighting in which more than 50,000 were reported killed. Ndadaye’s successor Cyprien Ntariyama (Hutu) was killed in a plane crash on April 6, 1994 alongside Rwandan President Habyarimana. Sylvestre Ntibantunganya (Hutu) took power and served as President until July 1996, when a coup brought current President Pierre Buyoya (Tutsi) to power. In August 2000, nineteen Burundi parties signed the Peace and Reconciliation Agreement in Arusha, Tanzania overseen by the Burundi peace process facilitator, former South African President Nelson Mandela. The Arusha Peace Agreement includes provisions for an ethnically balanced army and legislature, and for democratic elections to take place after three years of transitional government. The three-year transition period is scheduled to begin on November 1, 2001 with President Pierre Buyoya serving for the first 18 months. The candidate of the “group of seven” parties (G7) representing Hutu interests, Domitien Ndayizeye, is designated Vice-President.

INTRODUCTION Le présent rapport traite des différentes violations des droits humains commises dans diverses localités du pays au cours du mois de septembre 2019. Bien entendu, il ne prétend pas mettre en évidence tous les cas d’atteinte portée aux droits humains au cours du mois concerné, certains ayant pu échapper à notre observation. Notre rapport commence par une analyse contextuelle de la situation sécuritaire, politique, judiciaire et sociale car, pour nous, une telle approche nous permet de faire une bonne appréciation de la situation des droits humains dans le pays. Ainsi, des exactions commises par les Imbonerakure (jeunes affiliés au parti au pouvoir, le CNDD/FDD), tantôt contre des personnes membres du parti CNL , des attaques sans répit des groupes armés non identifiés sur les voies publiques, des armes retrouvées ça et là, ont été au centre des perturbations de la sécurité.
