SUBJECT: Tanzania Refugee Update: Resettlement on track for 1972 
Burundians, Repatriations of others on hold 
 
1.  On March 6, UNCHR Chief of Mission Yacoub El Hillo briefed 
donors on the Country Operations Plan (COP) and status of refugees 
in Tanzania. El Hillo said the process of granting citizenship to 
the nearly 200,000 Burundi refugees from the 1972 exodus continued 
to be on schedule and had the highest UNHCR in Tanzania priority. 
He anticipated UNHCR will submit a new budget request to donor 
nations soon for the next phase of integrating newly naturalized 
refugees into Tanzanian society, but did estimate costs.  In 
addition to the 1972 Burundian population, as of March 12, there 
were 106,000 Burundian and Congolese (DRC) refugees (down from 
215,000 at the start of 2008) in three northwest Tanzanian camps. 
 
2.  Refugees were distributed in three camps: Mtabili, with 41, 365 
Burundi refugees; Nyarugusu, with 37,864 Burundians; and Lugufu, 
with 24,856 Congolese.  The Kanembwa camp is officially closed, but 
still has 1,840 refugees: 1,080 from DRC, 559 from Burundi, and a 
mixed population of 201 other refugees, primarily from Somalia. 
There are three 1972 settlement locations of Burundi refugees: 
Ulyankulu, 50,626; Katumba, 88,954; and Mishomo, 54,980.  There is 
also a population of 1,527 Somali refugees in Chogo, about 217 miles 
north of Dar es Salaam, who are a part of the naturalization and 
integration program. 
 
3.  Due to the social pressures on the Government of Burundi to 
absorb returning refugees, the repatriation process was put on hold 
until April.  Once repatriation resumes, El Hillo said, there will 
be two convoys each week to Burundi of about 500 refugees each, with 
a goal of returning approximately 30,000 refugees this year.  Due to 
the continued political uncertainty in the DRC, it was not 
anticipated that any DRC refugees will return this year. 
 
4.  The issue of relocating newly naturalized refugees away from 
their current locations remained controversial.  Some questioned the 
wisdom of moving people away from a place where they are settled and 
productive to a new place to start from scratch.  However, the idea 
has a historical reference for Tanzania.  Founding President Julius 
Nyerere saw moving people from one place to another as a way to 
prevent tribalism and to create a cohesive nation.  During his time, 
all children attended secondary school away from their home, and all 
graduates had to travel yet again to another location for a year of 
national service.  Still, the Ministry of Home Affairs is 
considering the argument for leaving some refugees in place. 
 
5.  El Hillo said there is continuing good cooperation between UNHCR 
and GOT; past harassment of refugees and aid workers by local 
government officials has decreased.  It remained illegal for 
refugees to live outside of the camps and settlements.  Refugees 
could only travel outside the camps with a permit for the purpose of 
collecting firewood within two and a half miles of the camps. 
Refugees and asylum seekers who were apprehended outside camps 
without permits were generally sentenced to community service, 
rather than imprisonment and deportation as had been the case in 
earlier years.  However, due to the delays in repatriating refugees, 
the government eased some of its "push" strategies to motivate 
refugees to return home.  In Lungufu camp, for example, both primary 
and secondary schools have been reopened.
