Read the reportWhy are we in Democratic Republic of Congo? Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) faces several challenges, including high levels of poverty, continuous armed conflict in many parts of the country and high food insecurity. Concern Worldwide has been present in the country for over two decades providing both emergency and development programming.
Over four million people are registered as internally displaced, and many people have been displaced on multiple occasions, further increasing their vulnerabilities and decreasing their resilience. In response to these deepening humanitarian needs, we are implementing emergency and development programming in North Kivu, Tanganyika, Haut Lomami, Kasai Central and Lomami provinces.
