Marguerite (Maggy) Barankitse is a humanitarian activist who works to improve the welfare of children and challenge ethnic discrimination in Burundi. She established Maison Shalom, a shelter that provided access to healthcare, education, and culture to over 20,000 orphan children in need. Because she protested against a third term for President Nkurunziza, she lives in exile. 

We are delighted to host Ms. Barankitse at Duke Divinity School for this Trauma Informed Care Workshop, co-sponsored by the Theology, Medicine, and Culture Initiative and the Office of Field Education at Duke Divinity School, with gratitude to the Kenan Institute for Ethics.
