This work of memory is entitled˸« Management of high˗risk areas of flood ˸ case of Delta of Rusizi and North˗Eastern part of lake Tanganyika. It is the part lies at Gatumba, Rukaramu and the part of North˗Eastern of lake Tanganyika. The part of Gatumba is bounded to the West by the small white section of the Rusizi river and to the East by the Buringa hill. To the South, it borders with lake Tanganyika. The North˗Eastern part of lake Tanganyika is bounded to the North by Rukaramu, to the West by lake Tanganyika and to the South by the Muha river. The choise to the work on this area is inspired by regular annual floods that are observed there and which cause damage. Morphorigic arrangements torrential nature of water courses accelerated by climate change, strong demographic growth, etc participate in the flood process in the city of Buumbura in general and in our study area in particular. These floods are becoming widespred in the west of Burundi due to unplanned urbun growth, the exploitation building materials, the construction of poorlysized gutters or kack of gutters as well as poor management of waste which block the gutters. When floods occur, infrustrure such as houses, roads, bridges, schools but also fields are ravaged by overflowing water.This present study aims to contribute to the management of different impact caused by these floods, to the determination of the elements which are factors of the vulnerability of this flood zone, by proposing solutions which can help to control , mitigate and adapt to the possible effects of this disaster. Generally speaking, catastrophic natural phenomena such as floods, landslides, droughts, etc are linked to climate change and anthroropogigenic activities. It would therefore be important to put in place adequate and effective mechanisms for good management of flooddisastterss and good practice of prevention and protection measurers.

Introduction: Exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) among children under six months of age is an essential public health intervention, particularly in the field of maternal and child nutrition in developing countries such as Burundi. Its practice remains influenced by several factors, especially in refugee camp settings. This study aimed to identify the determinants of exclusive breastfeeding practice among children under six months of age in the Gasorwe-Kinama refugee camp in Burundi. Methodology: An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted from January 1 to 30, 2026, in the Gasorwe-Kinama refugee camp among 95 mothers with children under six months of age. Participants were selected using a simple random sampling technique. After obtaining informed consent, data were collected using a structured questionnaire administered to the mothers/guardians and completed by the investigator through KoboCollect. Sample description and bivariate analysis using Odds Ratios (ORs) and their 95% confidence intervals were performed with Stata. Variables with a p-value < 0.20 in the bivariate analysis were included in the multivariate analysis. Variables with a p-value < 0.05 were considered significantly associated with exclusive breastfeeding practice among children under six months of age in the Gasorwe-Kinama refugee camp. Results: Multivariate analysis revealed that secondary level of education (OR = 16.46; 95% CI: [2.15–125.66]), presence of illnesses during pregnancy (OR = 0.10; 95% CI: [0.01–0.54]), and receiving information on nutritional factors that enhance breast milk production (OR = 25.15; 95% CI: [3.86–163.72]) were significantly associated with the practice of exclusive breastfeeding among mothers of infants under six months of age in the Gasorwe-Kinama refugee camp. Conclusion: Our study identified the main determinants associated with the practice of exclusive breastfeeding in the Gasorwe-Kinama refugee camp. The findings highlight the need to strengthen educational, nutritional, and health interventions targeting pregnant and breastfeeding women in order to improve the practice of exclusive breastfeeding, as well as the nutrition and health of children.

This study was carried out to contribute to the knowledge on the family organisation of the female single-parent household in South Kivu in the Democratic Republic of Congo. It sets out to analyse the daily organisational model of these households, their relations with extended families and relational networks. The results showed that there is a plurality of variables that influence this organisation: the social ecosystem (in urban areas: Bukavu, semi-rural: Mudaka, rural: Kaziba), family composition, forms of single parenthood (passive, foster mothers, mothers who entrust their children to family members, active), head of household, the mode of acquisition of living space (occupation status, occupancy rate per room), types of activities, income, family ties, dependents, survival needs. In addition, the sociological and socio-economic profile has a direct or indirect influence on the organisation of these households. However, women heads of household develop strategies according to the socio-cultural resources and income from various activities. Traditional practices of solidarity, family solidarity and relational networks also contribute to the organisation of these households, depending on the geographical context which allows for a favourable environment for the different forms of single-parent households.

The present research focuses on the inventory of sacred stones in the Kirimiro South region of Burundi, in a context where their heritage value remains little known, insufficiently protected, and weakly integrated into sustainable development initiatives. It seeks to answer the following question: how can the knowledge, protection, and valorization of the sacred stones of the Kirimiro South region contribute to sustainable development in Burundi? More specifically, the study examines their identification, symbolic meanings, associated traditions, and potential for valorization. To achieve these objectives, a qualitative approach was adopted. It combines documentary research, interviews with key informants, direct observation, and site visits. Furthermore, two theoretical frameworks were mobilized to analyze and interpret the data collected, namely the theory of heritage-making (patrimonialization) and stakeholder theory. The results reveal a diversity of sacred stones present across the 13 megalithic sites identified in the study. These sacred stones have religious, cultural, historical, social, economic, and political-legal functions. More specifically, some stones are associated with fertility, healing, prosperity, justice, and conflict resolution. Moreover, these stones constitute spaces of memory and serve as supports for cultural representations within local communities. However, agricultural activities, construction, and socio-religious transformations threaten their preservation. Thus, the inventory conducted provides a foundation for their protection, transmission, and valorization from the perspective of sustainable development and the promotion of cultural tourism in Burundi.
