EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The exceptional sequence of events that marked the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) during the year 2002, from the Nyiragongo volcano disaster in January to the withdrawal of foreign forces as well as the beginning of effective measures vis-à-vis foreign armed groups, have had a complex set of effects on the living conditions of the Congolese population, particularly in areas exposed to armed violence. While the resumption of ties with multilateral institutions seems to confirm the Economist’s “World in 2002” prediction that the Democratic Republic of Congo could be the possible “good surprise” country of the year, the continued move of armed confrontation away from the conventional frontline, towards areas of Eastern DRC, marks out the perimeter between Kindu, Kisangani, Kalemie and Aru as zones of fear. The DRC remains marked by a persistent pattern of violence and insecurity, especially in mineral-rich and/or ethnically contested areas. A complete lack of law and order, and a disregard for traditional means of arbitration characterise the environment of millions of Congolese. Further fragmentation and warlordism cannot be ruled out in some areas as established as well as new actors jockey for power, influence and resources, even if other areas experience more positive outcomes and come a long way to feed the credo of a “good surprise”. As a result, the operating environment for humanitarian organisations will be more demanding and complex. Success will only come through the constant efforts of the humanitarian organisations to gain access in both previously accessible and inaccessible areas. In contrast, the initiation of Disarmament, Demobilisation and Reintegration of former combatants (DDR) activities provides an alternative to war, and may widen the scope for a reduction in displacement and for a resumption of rural life as a viable alternative to the recurrent search for physical and human security in urban settlements. Flexibility and responsiveness are therefore key to a two-pronged humanitarian strategy for the year 2003 in the DRC. A first axis will aim at widening the humanitarian space in most affected areas of the DRC. Advocating for reaching the hidden target groups, pursuing humanitarian assistance to reachable vulnerable groups will be daily tasks, coupled with fostering rapid intervention and information sharing coordination capacities. A second axis will revolve around strengthening reintegration dynamics. Deciding when to return home or to resettle remains a sovereign choice, however weakened individuals and families can be. The purpose of this year’s strategy will be to accompany them in this choice, using common grounds with the R segment of the DDR whenever needed. Responsiveness will equally translate into strengthened humanitarian information and coordination structures in areas most affected by the effects of, and potential for more, armed violence. At central level, this will, in turn, feed strategic mechanisms for a humanitarian coordination whose position will be at the confluence of emergency responses, reintegration dynamics and early recovery. Humanitarian assistance to the DRC channelled through the Consolidated Appeal (CA) in the ten first months of 2002 amounted to US$ 79,118,000. The year 2003 will be characterised, for the first time in a decade, by a flow of fund contributions for peace-keeping and economic rehabilitation purposes. It is essential that the needs of the voiceless and of those most exposed to armed violence be also addressed through a robust humanitarian response. The CAP 2003 for the Democratic Republic of Congo will seek approximately US$ 270 million. 1 Consolidated Inter-Agency Appeal 2003 For The Democratic Republic Of The Congo 2002 United Nations Consolidated Inter-Agency Appeal for the Democratic Republic of Congo List of Project Activities by Strategic Pillars January – December 2003 WIDENING HUMANITARIAN SPACE Physical Widening of Humanitarian Space AGENCY PROJECT CODE PROJECT TITLE FUNDS REQUESTED Atlas Logistique DRC-03/ER/I01 Construction, reconstruction and rehabilitation of 918,000 roads, shelters, buildings and public facilities in order to increase the humanitarian intervention perimeter and relieve populations Atlas Logistique DRC-03/CSS01 Logistical and mechanical support to the DRC 1,134,000 humanitarian assistance WFP DRC-03/ER/I02 Rehabilitation of the rail bridge over the Niemba river 1,387,417 UNMAS DRC-03/MA01 Mine Action Coordination Centre 181,930 UNMAS DRC-03/MA02 Emergency mine/UXO clearance 696,720 UNMAS DRC-03/MA03 Landmine/UXO risk reduction education and advocacy 587,600 UNSECOORD DRC-03/S01 Field security officer and support 1,353,200 (UNDP) TOTAL 6,258,867 WIDENING HUMANITARIAN SPACE Peace Building and Conflict Management AGENCY PROJECT CODE PROJECT TITLE FUNDS REQUESTED UNDP DRC- Support to the reconciliation process between the 505,000 03/P/HR/RL01 populations of Ituri OHCHR DRC- Monitoring and technical cooperation programmes of 1,586,184 03/P/HR/RL02 the human rights situation in the DRC GERDIS- DRC-03/ER/I03 Support to economic and peace initiatives in the 450,000 FONEC eastern DRC ILO DRC-03/ER/I04 Employment for peace in Ituri, North and South Kivu 525,000 TOTAL 3,066,184 2 Consolidated Inter-Agency Appeal 2003 For The Democratic Republic Of The Congo WIDENING HUMANITARIAN SPACE Life-saving Interventions AGENCY PROJECT CODE PROJECT TITLE FUNDS REQUESTED OCHA DRC-03/CSS02 Coordination of humanitarian assistance 7,224,585 UNDP DRC- Support to emergency intervention and assistance 720,000 03/P/HR/RL03 mechanisms MEMISA DRC-03/MS01 Support to emergency intervention 527,000 Belgium UNICEF DRC-03/H01 Emergency primary health care 4,320,000 WHO DRC-03/H02 Minimum package of emergency health care 766,900 WFP DRC-03/F01 Protracted relief and recovery operation for war- 109,251,138 affected victims and vulnerable groups UNICEF DRC-03/H03 Nutrition rehabilitation and promotion 3,103,200 FAO DRC-03/A01 Support to the coordination of emergency agriculture 649,600 operations UNICEF DRC-03/S/NF01 Assistance to the most vulnerable displaced and 4,022,400 refugee children and women UNICEF DRC-03/WS01 Emergency water and sanitation 3,162,000 TOTAL 133,746,823 REINFORCING REINTEGRATION DYNAMICS DDRRR and Reintegration AGENCY PROJECT CODE PROJECT TITLE FUNDS REQUESTED UNDP DRC-03/ER/I05 Community recovery reintegration of ex combatants 13,572,136 and small arms reduction UNDP DRC-03/ER/I06 Rapid response scheme for disarmament, 3,500,000 demobilisation and reintegration in the DRC UNDP DRC-03/ER/I07 Support for establishment of a national DDR 1,000,000 programme in the DRC WHO DRC-03/H04 Health component of DDRRR 7,343,000 ILO DRC-03/ER/I08 Socio-economic reinsertion of child soldiers in the east 720,000 DRC UNICEF DRC- Protection of children affected by armed conflict 4,200,000 03/P/HR/RL04 UNDP DRC-03/A05 Economic and social reintegration of vulnerable 722,500 groups UNDP DRC-03/S/NF02 Project of re-housing of vulnerable populations 3,752,960 UNHCR DRC-03/MS02 International protection of and humanitarian 24,963,567 assistance to refugees in the DRC, support durable solutions such as voluntary repatriation, local integration and resettlement

This study aimed to determine the scope of household, accessibility to malaria care and factors associated with household malaria in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). Methods: This was a community‑based cross‑sectional study conducted in an urban and a rural sites in which 152 households participated, including 82 urban and 70 rural households (1029 members in total). The ‘malaria indicator questionnaire’ (MIQ) was anonymously answered by household heads (respondents), reporting on malaria status of household members in the last 12 months. Results: There were 67.8% of households using insecticide‑treated bed nets (ITN) only, 14.0% used indoor residual spraying (IRS) only, 7.3% used ordinary bed nets (without insecticide treatment), 1.4% used mosquito repelling cream, 2.2% combined ITN and IRS, whereas 7.3% of households did not employ any preventive measure; p < 0.01). In addi‑ tion, 96.7% of households were afected by malaria (at least one malaria case), and malaria frequency per household was relatively high (mean: 4.5 3.1 cases reported) in the last 12 months.

  • A North–South-South Partnership in Higher Education to Develop Health
    Horwood et al. Health Res Policy Sys (2021) 19:79 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12961-021-00728-8 RESEARCH Open Access A North–South-South partnership in higher education to develop health research capacity in the Democratic Republic of the Congo: the challenge of fnding a common language Christiane Horwood1, Sphindile Mapumulo1, Lyn Haskins1, Vaughn John2, Silondile Luthuli1, Thorkild Tylleskär3, Paulin Mutombo4, Ingunn M. S. Engebretsen3, Mala Ali Mapatano4 and Anne Hatløy3,5* Abstract Background: Globally, increasing numbers of higher education institutions (HEIs) in non-English-speaking countries have adopted English as a medium of instruction (EMI), because of the perception that this provides opportunities to attract high-calibre students and academic staf, and engage with the international research community. We report an evaluation of a North–South-South collaboration to develop health research capacity in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) by establishing a postgraduate programme in nutritional epidemiology at the Kinshasa School of Public Health (KSPH), where EMI was adopted. We report experiences and perceptions of stakeholders, facilitators and students about using EMI. Methods: In-depth qualitative interviews were conducted between October and December 2019 among conveni- ence sampled stakeholders (8), facilitators (11) and students (12) involved in the programme from all three partner institutions (University of Kinshasa; University of KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa; University of Bergen, Norway). Interviews were conducted in participants’ language of preference (English or French), audio-recorded, transcribed verbatim and translated into English when required. Analysis employed a thematic approach. Results: Most participants viewed EMI positively, reporting that studying in English created opportunities to access relevant literature, improve interactions with the scientifc community and advance their careers.

This assessment was based on data found in the literature or obtained by personal investigations. These data have not as yet been published, except for the global figures for infected or blind people which were given in the report of a WHO Expert Committee on Onchocerciasis (WHO, 1987). Onchocerciasis is still a major public health problem in Zaire and it therefore seemed important to determine exactly the prevailing situation .of this disease in the different
