We urge the UK Government to act against mass rape, violence and exploitation in the Democratic Republic of Congo by increasing aid funding for survivors of war and increasing pressure on international partners to protect women and children, obtain justice for war crimes and to end all atrocities.

Many women and children in Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) are suffering horrific sexual violence, exploitation, and attacks by armed groups. We believe immediate UK action is needed to protect lives, support survivors, and hold perpetrators accountable before more communities are destroyed
