2015 CD118 Partnerships for Peace

The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has been suffering from a humanitarian crisis over the past 20 years, as millions of people have died and been displaced from their homes. The infrastructure, schools, health and social services do not function - and as a result, many children lack access to their rights and proper care. This projects supports organisations in society to include children in the community and decision making process, so that they can work on democratic conflict resolutions and peace. Approximately 10,000 children will learn to speak up about the issues they face and call for change in society, both nationally and internationally.
