Cherishing the Impact of ID Kits
In August of 2023, 1,440 Batwa indigenous people from 18 villages received legal identity, access to essential social services, and basic rights for the first time through ID Kits. Eight months later, the ongoing impact of those ID Kits are still being felt and cherished.
