 The European Commission has announced €34.275 million in humanitarian funding to help the most
 vulnerable people in the Great Lakes region in Africa. The aid will mainly help address urgent
 humanitarian needs in the Democratic Republic of Congo and provide continued support to Burundian
 refugees in the region.

 The bulk of the funding announced supports humanitarian measures in the Democratic Republic of
 Congo (€29.375 million) and refugees from Burundi in Tanzania and Rwanda (€4.3 million). The
 remaining €600,000 are allocated to UN agencies in Burundi and to help refugees from the Democratic
 Republic of Congo in neighbouring Republic of Congo.
