At the level of the Ministry of Youth, Sports and Culture, two directorates have been set up which work in the youth sector to help young people organise themselves into associations. These are the Directorate of the Associative Movement of the Youth and that of the Economic Integration of the Youth. The first aims to strengthen the organisational capacity of young people and the second helps young people to get into the production circuits, by promoting entrepreneurship, by proposing some strategic ways for self-management to be a reality.52 231. Most Burundian youth are supervised in Youth Associations spread throughout the country, and they work towards guidance and promotion of self-care. In addition, the types of associations are as diverse as their areas of intervention. Thus, we meet sporting and cultural associations, charities, self-help associations, associations fighting against poverty, those fighting AIDS, religious associations, etc. 51 Draft Code of Child Protection 52 Patriotic Education and Training Program in Burundi 50
