World Vision, through the WALIP Project funded by the U.S. Government, is helping conflict-affected children in North Kivu, eastern DRC, rebuild their lives through Child-Friendly Spaces. In Kanyaruchinya, nearly 900 children participate in educational, recreational, and psychosocial activities each week in a safe environment that promotes healing and growth. According to Moyo Khangezani, Chief of Party of the WALIP Project, football has become a powerful tool for helping children cope with trauma, regain confidence, and envision a brighter future. Inspired by the Democratic Republic of the Congo’s qualification for the 2026 FIFA World Cup and role models such as Cédric Bakambu, children like Ruphin and Kevine are pursuing their dreams while developing resilience and hope. The Child-Friendly Spaces demonstrate how investing in child protection, learning, and well-being can transform the lives of children affected by conflict.
