MONUSCO
Kinshasa, 27 July 2025 – The United Nations Organization Stabilization Mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (MONUSCO) strongly condemns the attack that took place during the night of 26 to 27 July 2025 in Komanda (approximately 60 km southwest of Bunia), in Irumu territory, Ituri.
The BiEster Foundation, which has been involved for several years in psychosocial support, economic empowerment and the promotion of women's rights in conflict zones, relies on concrete strategies to raise women's awareness and encourage their active participation in peace processes.
«Parler pour protéger» is part of a drive to raise awareness and mobilize the community, reminding us that preventing sexual exploitation and abuse is a shared responsibility, and that information is the first barrier against impunity.
In close collaboration with the Congolese government's Disarmament, Demobilization, Community Rehabilitation and Stabilization Program (P-DDRCS), MONUSCO works daily to facilitate the reintegration of former combatants and militiamen.
