<p>The Department for International Development’s (DFID) humanitarian programme in
Burundi is addressing food insecurity and malnutrition, providing support to internally
displaced people and to returning refugees and their host communities. It does not
provide support to Congolese refugees. We continue to monitor the overall humanitarian
situation in Burundi, including that of Congolese refugees, given ongoing risks in
the country.</p><p> </p><p>The UK also remains committed to reducing poverty and instability
in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) – a key driver for migration to neighbouring
countries. The UK is funding stabilisation activities in Eastern DRC to address the
underlying drivers of conflict, and we remain at the forefront of the humanitarian
response in the DRC.</p>
