Today, Rwanda is proud to provide troops to the UN for its peacekeeping and mediation missions in conflict zones. With peace restored, the economy has one of the best growth in Africa. Foreigners are investing and tourism has taken off, reaching a million visitors a year.

- Since 2015, more than 450.000 Burundians have been forced to flee and to seek refuge in neighboring countries (such as Rwanda, Tanzania, Uganda). Among them, more than 90.000 are in Rwanda, of which 60.000 live in Mahama refugee camp and 32.000 in Kigali and surroundings. In this difficult context, the international organization Maison Shalom, founded by "Maggy" Barankitse (winner of the Aurora prize 2016) is doing all in its power to protect and restore dignity to Burundian refugees in Rwanda. To do that the Community Center Oasis of Peace was created in Kigali in 2016 in order to school children, offer psychosocial support to victims of torture and rape, and to implement activities of sustainable development in areas such as health, education, vocational training, culture and income-generation.
