Dans le cadre du suivi régulier de la mise en œuvre du projet #RHCC, @World_VisionRdc a dépêché une délégation dans plusieurs sites de soins appuyés par le projet au #Kasaï, mis en œuvre en consortium avec @Rotary et #PATH
Cette mission, dirigée par le Dr Philippe et Dr Bob avait pour objectif d’évaluer l’état d’avancement des activités, la disponibilité des médicaments et des matériels destinés aux structures et sites de soins, de suivre les principaux indicateurs de performance du projet et d’apprécier les progrès réalisés dans l’amélioration de l’accès aux services de santé et de nutrition au bénéfice des communautés.
La visite a par ailleurs offert un cadre d’échange avec les Relais Communautaires de Sites de Soins (#RECOSITES), dont les contributions sont essentielles à l’identification des besoins, des difficultés opérationnelles et des pistes d’amélioration.

Today, we are pleased to lead the launch ceremony of the co-creation workshop for the Faith and Community Initiative (FCI) in #Kinshasa , alongside our partners: the United States Government, represented by the US Embassy in the DRC; our technical partner, ADRA; and the Ministry of Public Health, Hygiene and Social Welfare, represented by its Secretary-General, Dr Body-Robert Ilonga.
The Faith and Community Initiative (#FCI), which will be implemented in six provinces of the #DRC , aims to strengthen the contribution of faith-based health facilities to national efforts to improve access to quality healthcare. It seeks to build on their close links with communities and their essential role in promoting the health and well-being of the population.
At World Vision, we firmly believe that faith-based health facilities are indispensable actors within the health system, particularly in the most vulnerable communities. Through this initiative, we are committed to recognising their contribution, strengthening their capacities and placing women and children at the heart of our interventions.
We extend our sincere gratitude to the United States Government, through its @USEmbKinshasa in the @DRC; the Ministry of Public Health, Hygiene and Social Welfare; @ADRAIntl , our implementing partner; as well as the faith-based organisations and all technical and financial partners committed to this initiative.
We would also like to acknowledge @WorldVisionUSA  for its continued guidance and support, which enable us to pursue our mission and ensure that our assistance serves as a genuine catalyst for lasting community transformation.

At the heart of the #Ebola response in eastern #DRC, Dr Gédéon Katembo Kasinaminya is on the front line, helping to save lives. As the person in charge of the #Vuhovi Ebola Treatment Centre (ETC), he plays a vital role in caring for patients and is uniquely placed to witness the progress made in raising community awareness.
Through World Vision’s awareness-raising activities, communities are increasingly being encouraged to seek medical attention directly at health facilities as soon as they develop suspected symptoms. This change in behaviour is essential to ensuring timely care, reducing the risk of transmission and saving lives.

“Today, more patients are coming forward for medical attention,” says Dr Gédéon Katembo Kasinaminya.

Aujourd’hui, Christelle vous emmène à #Butembo, l’une des zones touchées par l’épidémie d’#Ebola en République démocratique du #Congo, pour découvrir comment nous poursuivons la sensibilisation à la prévention de la maladie grâce au soutien financier Fond d'Assistance Humanitaire Canadien.
Dans les écoles, des kits de lavage des mains ont été distribués afin de renforcer les pratiques d’hygiène et de contribuer à la prévention de la transmission de la maladie.
Nous sommes allés à la rencontre des enfants sensibilisés, qui nous partagent les gestes essentiels qu’ils ont appris pour se protéger et protéger leurs camarades.
Écoutons-les : leurs conseils nous rappellent que les bons gestes d’hygiène peuvent faire la différence dans la lutte contre #Ebola.
Ensemble, continuons à promouvoir les bonnes pratiques et à protéger les communautés.

As the world celebrated International Food Day on October 16, @WorldVision brings us today to #SANGE in South #Kivu, eastern #DRC , where irrigation is transforming lives.
Thanks to the rehabilitation of canals carried out by World Vision, with support from @WFP under the RESILIENCE project, the production of Noella, a mother of seven children, has doubled: from 2 to 4 bags of rice per season. For Sophia, 18, water in the fields means staying in school.
In total, 824 hectares are now irrigated and communities are trained in canal maintenance so that water continues to flow sustainably.

Watch the video below and share it with your network, because access to healthy and sufficient food should not be a privilege.

Ebola in the #DRC: Behind the response, humanitarian teams face daily challenges to save lives

World Vision is actively contributing to the response to the #Ebola outbreak in #NorthKivu, #SouthKivu and #Ituri provinces. On the ground, our teams are raising community awareness and distributing handwashing kits and hot meals to patients and suspected cases in Ebola Treatment Centres (#ETCs).
However, behind these interventions lies a reality that often goes unnoticed: the daily challenges humanitarian workers face in reaching affected areas.
In this video, @ige_lasha , one of our field staff, shares her experience travelling from North Kivu to Ituri, highlighting the challenges posed by insecurity and access restrictions. These obstacles significantly complicate the delivery of aid and the continuity of assistance to affected communities.
This, too, is the reality of humanitarian action: women and men who, despite the risks, constraints and time spent away from their families, remain committed to providing assistance and hope to the most vulnerable people.
World Vision DRC pays tribute to all humanitarian teams mobilised in the response to Ebola.

[World Vision DRC @World_VisionRdc]

These stories remind us that humanitarian action is not only about meeting urgent needs, but also about restoring opportunities and strengthening communities.

We thank the @StateDept for its support in helping vulnerable women, children, and families affected by crisis access protection, essential services, and opportunities for a brighter future.

Creating Lasting Change in North Kivu, DRC

Over the past two years, the project"Emergency Response to WASH, Protection and Livelihoods Needs of IDPs and Host Communities in North Kivu" has brought hope, dignity, and resilience to thousands of conflict-affected families. Through integrated interventions in Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH), Child Protection, and Livelihoods, we reached 138,260 people, including 61,418 children, across several territories of North Kivu.
Beyond the numbers are powerful stories of transformation. Mothers rebuilding their livelihoods, women finding support and dignity through safe spaces, and children rediscovering joy and hope despite the hardships of displacement.

#Ebola in the DRC: Why This Outbreak Is So Difficult to Combat

So Chris Montgomery has put together this video to better understand what makes Ebola so hard to combat in the Democratic Republic of Congo.r faster than that one did.
Ebola has faded out of the news because there's been a lot of news to tell and limited time to tell it, but also because the story is hard to put into headlines. It's wrapped in complex layers of history, traditions, and systemic failure that have combined to make everything worse.

World Humanitarian Day, Ebola Response DRC:

Christian Kasereka, head of the #Ebola response programme in the #DRC, talks about his deployment to #Beni and #Bunia, the epicentre of the outbreak, where community resistance and misinformation are hindering response efforts and exposing aid workers and healthcare staff to attacks by local people, as well as to the risk of infection by the virus. This has led World Vision DRC to use faith-based awareness-raising initiatives to build trust and break the chain of transmission through an approach known as the ‘Channel of Hope’ (#CoH) Christian calls for the protection of humanitarian workers and for a response that is primarily community-centred.

Strengthening partnerships to better protect and promote children’s rights in the Democratic Republic of the #Congo.
Édouard Ngoy, Country Director of @World_VisionRdc, was received by Ms Micheline Ombae, Minister for Gender, Family and Children, as part of an introductory meeting and official presentation.
This meeting provided an opportunity to reaffirm our commitment to working alongside the Ministry on key priorities for children, notably education, health, nutrition and child protection.
Discussions focused in particular on the institutionalisation of the Children’s Parliament, the fight against violence against children – including violence affecting boys – economic and educational reintegration, and the promotion of the right to identity and birth registration.
World Vision #DRC welcomes this shared commitment to strengthening institutional collaboration and building sustainable solutions for the benefit of children and communities. With our presence in 14 provinces, we remain committed to working alongside the Government and our partners to create an environment in which every child can be protected, heard and able to fully exercise their rights.

The World Vision Southern Africa Regional Director, Matthew Pickard, accompanied by Edouard Ngoy, National Director of World Vision DRC, was received by Damien Mama, Deputy Special Representative of the Secretary-General, Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator in the Democratic Republic of #Congo.
The discussions focused on several key issues, including the #Ebola response, the localisation of humanitarian assistance, accountability to affected populations, protection from sexual exploitation and abuse (#PSEA), and strengthening collaboration between World Vision and @UNOCHA_DRC .
While commending World Vision’s work with communities, the Resident Humanitarian Coordinator also highlighted priority areas where efforts could be further concentrated to achieve even more significant results, particularly in a humanitarian context severely affected by declining funding.
The meeting builds on a strong partnership and ongoing dialogue between the two institutions, driven by a shared objective: to pool efforts and better respond to the needs of the most vulnerable people in the #DRC.
