The Association des jeunes leaders unis pour le développement durable, AJLUDD for short, is a non-profit association working in Burundi. Its vision is "an active, conscious and fulfilled society devoid of all behaviours, mentalities and habits leading to high unemployment and poverty in the country" and its mission is "to shape the Burundian population in general and the youth in particular through capacity building and concrete actions by transforming them into real actors of development and thus, to move from job demand to self-employment and job offer".
