Mwamini Wizeyimana, is relieved to have finally escaped the worsening political violence in Burundi and reached safety in Rwanda, but she dreaded that moment. Having already been a refugee twice, she knows what it means to be a refugee. Her six children will now have the same destiny as her. They will grow up in a refugee camp. But she had no choice. Political violence in Burundi put her family at risk of attack. Her only way to protect her children was to run away.
