They are believed to be the original inhabitants of Burundi. Over just the past 50 years, the Batwa has been evicted from the forests of Burundi.
They have been displaced in mass to support the creation of national parks and the establishment of tea plantations and other farms. They make a small minority of all the people in Burundi, just one percent of the entire population. They live in straw huts, which can host an entire family. You will just learn about their lifestyles and participate in the pottery making and you will see how women sell traditional clay cooking pots to survive, and as result, pottery becomes the key symbol of modern pygmy identity.
