DR Congo: “The Nightmares Stopped Here”: How the WALIP Project Heals Broken Children
In the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, where years of conflict have robbed countless children of their childhood, the WALIP project is bringing healing and hope. Funded by the US Department of State and implemented by World Vision in partnership with Cœur Sans Frontière, the initiative offers vital psychosocial support to young survivors of war, displacement, and abuse. Through safe spaces, counselling, and recreational activities, children like Alice and Justin are finding the strength to overcome trauma, rebuild their sense of dignity, and dream again of a brighter future.
