Improving Women's Lives in the Democratic Republic of Congo
Manage episode 410801947 series 3198397
Dr Marthe Kondemo is visiting Australia from the Democratic Republic of Congo to learn about innovative women's health and livelihood initiatives to see what may be replicable in the DRC. While here she will meet a wide range of organisations dealing with such issues as domestic violence prevention, conflict resolution, peacebuilding, disability services and youth engagement. Despite vast natural resources the DRC has suffered from political instability, a lack of infrastructure, corruption and centuries of commercial extraction and exploitation. Her visit is facilitated by Lucy Hobgood-Brown from the Rotary E-Club of Greater Sydney.
