    KINSHASA ENQUETES NUTRITIONNELLES COMMUNES DE KIMBANSEKE, SELEMBAO, KINSHASA ET POOL KINGABWA - COMMUNE DE LIMETE REPUBLIQUE DEMOCRATIQUE DU CONGO ACTION AGAINST HUNGER (ACF-USA) / CEPLANUT 26 JUILLET AU 1er OCTOBRE 1999 Financée par la Coopération française I.- INTRODUCTION 1.1.- CONTEXTE Avec la reprise de la guerre en août 1998, la situation humanitaire en République Démocratique du Congo déjà difficile, devient préoccupante. Outre les mouvements de population que ces combats entraînent, la sécurité alimentaire des populations se précarise et l'activité agricole est désorganisée. La crise économique profonde auquel le pays fait face accroît les situations de précarités et de vulnérabilités des populations, principalement dans les villes. La ville de Kinshasa est particulièrement touchée. Les ressources qui auparavant y affluaient abondamment sont en diminution, voire disparaissent. La perte du contrôle d'une partie importante du pays a annulé les revenus en provenance de ces régions. Les conséquences sont : un ralentissement des activités économiques, une augmentation du chômage, une perte de pouvoir d'achat (estimée par la FAO à 30%) un appauvrissement généralisé de la population, Les difficultés de ravitaillement de la ville dues aux conséquences de la guerre et l'état très dégradé des routes d'accès viennent aggraver la situation alimentaire dans la capitale congolaise. On peut donc légitimement s’attendre à une incidence de la dégradation croissante de la situation économique sur l’état nutritionnel des populations. 1.2.- JUSTIFICATION DE L’ETUDE Au vu de la diversité de la ville de Kinshasa, de son étendue et de sa forte population, il est difficile de connaître avec précision la situation nutritionnelle de cette métropole.

  • DRC-Handicap International 2015
    Handicap International – Federal Information – DRC Country card – 2015 08 EN DDeemmooccrraattiicc RReeppuubblliicc ooff CCoonnggoo 22001155 MANDATE Handicap International aims at improving the living conditions of people with disabilities, preventing all forms of disability, training care service providers in the early detection of disabilities, promoting inclusive education and advancing the rights of people with disabilities by building the capacities of local operators in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Handicap International also works in an emergency context and helps the most vulnerable in areas affected by the alarming humanitarian crisis in Eastern DRC (North Kivu). SITUATION The Democratic Republic of Congo is the 2nd largest country in Africa. Its border is 9,165 km long and it plays a central and strategic role in the region. The DRC is one of the most multi-ethnic countries in Africa. It is considered to be the world’s largest French-speaking country. However, in economic terms, 80% of people depend for their livelihood on the informal sector. The DRC is ranked 186 out of 187 countries on the human development index. For more than fifteen years, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has been torn apart by an alarming humanitarian crisis, characterised by violent armed conflict (especially in the North and South Kivu regions), a very large number of displaced persons and refugees, various epidemics (cholera, measles, viral haemorrhagic fever), natural disasters (floods, hurricanes, heavy rains, droughts, bush fires and landslides) and a general context of poverty and insecurity. In this context, many people were internally displaced, and maybe peple have sought refuge in neighbouring countries1.

  • Situation Report
    BABAY ZIKA VIRUS SITUATION REPORT YELLOW FEVER 15 JULY 2016 SUMMARY . In Angola, as of 8 July 2016 a total of 3625 suspected cases have been reported, of which 876 are confirmed. The total number of reported deaths is 357, of which 117 were reported among confirmed cases. Suspected cases have been reported in all 18 provinces and confirmed cases have been reported in 16 of 18 provinces and 80 of 125 reporting districts. Mass reactive vaccination campaigns first began in Luanda and have now expanded to cover most of the other affected parts of Angola. Recently, the campaigns have focused on border areas. Despite extensive vaccination efforts circulation of the virus persists. Eleven reactive and pre-emptive mass vaccination campaigns are ongoing in several districts in Benguela, Huambo, Huila, Kwanza Norte, Kwanza Sul, Lunda Norte and Uige provinces. Six other mass vaccination campaigns are nearing completion. Mop-up campaigns are being implemented in parts of the provinces of Cunene, Lunda Norte, Uige and Zaire. Other than an increase in the number of suspected cases recently reported, there are no updates regarding the epidemiological situation in the Democratic Republic of The Congo (DRC). For the last three weeks the national laboratory in DRC has been unable to confirm or discard any suspected cases of yellow fever due to technical issues. According to the latest available information (as of 11 July), the total number of notified suspected cases is 1798, with 68 confirmed cases (as of 24 June) and 85 reported deaths. Cases have been reported in 22 health zones in five of 26 provinces.
