2016 CD122 Tuwakinge Watoto na Matokeo ya Vita (Children of Peace)

Peace treaties to try and halt the civil war in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) may have been signed ‐ but children continue to suffer from the sporadic violent unrest between the Congolese army and rebel militias in the east of the country. This project makes sure that children affected by armed conflict have access to learning opportunities in a safe environment. By engaging their parents, teachers and community leaders, society at large comes together to protect and educate the children who need it the most. Next to literacy and numeracy classes, the children also receive life skills training and join in recreational activities.
