Our Joint Programmes

Project to Support Stabilization and Conflict Prevention in North Kivu
The aim of the Joint Programme was to improve security and stability in the Democratic Republic of the Congo's troubled province of North Kivu. The programme  adopted a holistic and multi-sectoral approach to assist 70,000 returnees and victims of sexual violence to reintegrate into their communities and to equitably manage the natural resources that are at the heart of the conflict there – improving their ability to produce their own food, bring it to market and build their livelihoods.
