Youth and women empowerment in Burundi is a critical focus area for sustainable development. Gender Equality and the condition of women have long been at the heart of the Burundian state’s concerns, albeit in different contexts. It dates to the 1980s, with the establishment of the Ministry of Women’s Affairs and the Ministry of Social Affairs, with the mission of promoting and defending women’s rights. However, it is worth mentioning that the most decisive expression of gender equality is enshrined in the Fundamental Law of the Republic of Burundi (2005 & 2018), which enshrines, in Article 13, the equality of all Burundians before the law, who enjoy the same rights and are equal in merit and dignity.
