Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) is Africa’s second largest country, with great mineral and natural resources. For decades, DRC has suffered a multitude of crises: conflicts, political tensions, epidemics, undernutrition, and food insecurity. One in four people in DRC are experiencing a food crisis, 5.4 million of whom are struggling to survive on the brink of famine.
Action Against Hunger is responding to nutrition crises throughout Democratic Republic of Congo. We provide lifesaving treatment for malnourished children and mothers and we offer medical services that include pre- and postnatal care, mental health and wellbeing, and sexual and reproductive health.
People Displaced by Conflict
People Suffer from Acute Malnutrition
When disaster strikes, our emergency teams deploy to improve access to clean water, provide mental health services, and treat malnutrition.
Our technical experts work with government partners and local organizations to share knowledge and strengthen their capacity to fight hunger.
Our teams support families in conflict-affected areas to improve food security and rebuild their lives by providing seeds and tools to replant fields, offering training and tools to start businesses, and reinvigorating local markets.
