Current Situation:
Tanzania hosts more than 246,745 refugees mainly from Burundi and Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) in the refugee camps in Kigoma region, Dar es salaam urban, in Chogo, Kigoma villages and old settlements. As of 10th December 2021, there are two refugee camps (Nduta and Nyarugusu) in Kigoma region housing Congolese and Burundian refugees. Refugees in the camps rely on humanitarian assistance provided by the government of Tanzania, UNHCR, UNHCR partners and other national and international NGOs. In 2022 and beyond, UNHCR Tanzania will continue to work with the Government of Tanzania and humanitarian partners for the provision of protection and basic services to refugees and persons of concerns, delivered in accordance with minimum protection and assistance standards (including admission, non-refoulement, registration and documentation, assurance of basic security and other human rights standards). It will further continue to strive towards achieving international standards in the provision of basic needs and essential services such as shelter, health, nutrition, water, sanitation and hygiene for refugees in the camps
