KIOS supports selected projects in Burundi and among Tibetan exile organisations. Previously KIOS supported  selected projects in Bangladesh, Pakistan and Ethiopia but doesn’t accept new grant proposals from these countries.

Burundi

Recently KIOS’ support in Burundi has been distributed to projects improving the rights of women. Burundi’s history is marked by ethnic and political violence. Since 2015, civic space has remained very narrow or inexistent. The opposition, civil society actors, journalists and human rights defenders face continuous harassment by the regime. Most of the human rights defenders have fled the country.

Tibetan organizations in exile

KIOS has supported Tibetan organizations in exile. The organizations have provided human rights education and improved the rights of women among the refugee communities. KIOS also welcomes new grant proposals from the Tibetan civil society organizations in exile. Throughout the past years China has continued to tighten its control over Tibet further restricting Tibetans’ fundamental and human rights. Especially restrictions on freedom of expression and religion, as well as forced evictions of nomads, are among the most severe challenges in regard to the realization of human rights.
