Arusha Peace and Reconciliation Agreement for Burundi

2000 · 21st century · Part of the Burundian Civil War

The Arusha Peace and Reconciliation Agreement for Burundi was signed in Arusha, Tanzania, on 28 August 2000, after talks mediated first by Julius Nyerere and then by Nelson Mandela. It set out a transition and a system of power-sharing between Hutu and Tutsi in government, parliament and the army. Most armed groups joined later, and its principles shaped Burundi's constitution of 2005.
