10 years of MSF presence in Nduta Camp, Tanzania

After violence erupted in Burundi in 2015, thousands of people fled into Tanzania’s refugee camp Nduta, one of the most chronically underfunded camp in the world that hosted up to 120 000 people in 2019.

Since then, MSF has been one of the main healthcare providers in the camp, offering services such as primary and secondary healthcare, maternity and newborn care, mental health support, and emergency response. Over the years, MSF teams have cared for hundreds of thousands of people, both refugees and members of nearby host communities.

As time has passed, the situation in Nduta has changed. What began as an emergency response has become a long-term humanitarian operation. Many Burundian refugees have now lived in the camp for nearly a decade, facing ongoing uncertainty about their future. MSF staff have seen how people’s needs have evolved, from urgent medical treatment at the start, to long-term care, psychological support, and efforts to help people live with dignity despite limited opportunities and shrinking international attention.

In 2023, while the dismantling of the camp was being implemented as part of a voluntary return program, MSF kept providing medical services to refugees in the Nduta camp as well as to the surrounding community. We remain today the main healthcare provider in the camp and responded to a malaria upsurge declared in the camp in the summer 2023.

Our activities in the Nduta camp include a major focus on maternal and child health, with the aim of reducing mortality linked to high-risk pregnancies and childbirth.
