AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Health & Safety in Schools: Burunga boarding schools are under pressure as Rumeza, Rumonge and Al Marktoum High Schools report shortages of beds, mattresses, desks, teachers, drinking water and funding—making it hard to house pupils safely. Refugee Health & Protection: In Malawi’s Dzaleka camp, refugees told UNHCR about worsening hunger, lack of drinking water and medicine, unresolved deaths and alleged enforced disappearances, warning of rising malnutrition risk. Community Health & Violence: In Bujumbura, journalist Kenny Claude Nduwimana was violently attacked near his home; he received treatment at a health facility, while questions remain about delayed police action. Public Health Risks from Heat: A global guide highlights how extreme heat and heat waves threaten children’s health, strain water supplies and worsen food insecurity—especially where cooling and healthcare are limited. Measles Alert: WHO estimates measles cases are up 8% globally versus pre-pandemic 2019 levels, with most cases expected in Africa and Asia and higher risk of severe outcomes for undernourished people. Local Investigation: In Gitega’s Nyangungu, six people are in police custody after a house fire left a woman seriously injured; investigators say witchcraft is among the theories being examined.
