DR Congo: When War Overtakes Healing but Hope Prevails: The Story of GAKURU

GAKURU’s story illustrates the devastating impact of conflict and displacement on children facing malnutrition in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo. After recovering from severe acute malnutrition with support from World Vision, two-year-old GAKURU was forced to flee with his family when violence swept through his village, leading to a relapse. Through continued nutritional support and follow-up care, he eventually recovered. His journey highlights the resilience of children and families living through crisis, while showing how World Vision’s Nexus Accelerator Fund continues to provide life-saving nutrition support in hard-to-reach and conflict-affected communities.

Fighting Cholera at the Doorstep: Community Action Saves Lives in Kolwezi

In Kolwezi, Lualaba province, the cholera outbreak is not only claiming lives in the hospital. It is also claiming lives in people’s homes, but silently. Since December 2025, the Manika health zone has been facing a health crisis. But a genuine chain of solidarity has emerged. With support from World Vision DRC, through the NEPRF (National Emergency Preparedness and Response Fund), an internal emergency fund used to rapidly mobilise humanitarian aid during disasters, courageous community volunteers, such as Nicole, are going door-to-door to raise awareness, disinfect, distribute chlorine, and refer the sick to treatment centres. The result? Over 7,000 people have been reached. More than 100 kg of chlorine has been distributed. Community mobilisation is our best weapon against cholera. Because saving lives starts with a simple act: informing to protect.

Deuxième bloc opératoire du Centre Mère-Enfant de Dosso : un don qui sauve des vies

À l'occasion de la Journée Nationale de la Femme Nigérienne, le personnel féminin de World Vision Niger a offert un important lot d'équipements médicaux au Centre Mère-Enfant de Dosso afin de rendre opérationnel un deuxième bloc opératoire. Selon le Dr Bacharou Adamou Mamane Sani, chef du service post-opératoire, le centre ne disposait auparavant que d'un seul bloc opératoire malgré un nombre élevé d'urgences obstétricales et gynécologiques. Le don comprend notamment une table opératoire, des scialytiques, des lampes chauffantes, des boîtes de césarienne, des boîtes d'intervention gynécologique, un concentrateur d'oxygène et d'autres équipements essentiels. Grâce à ces matériels, le centre peut désormais faire fonctionner deux blocs opératoires et prendre en charge plus de 15 patientes par jour, réduisant considérablement les délais d'intervention. Le Dr Bacharou souligne que ces équipements ont amélioré la qualité des soins, renforcé les capacités du personnel soignant et contribué à réduire la mortalité maternelle et néonatale. Il exprime sa profonde gratitude à World Vision Niger pour ce soutien déterminant qui continue de sauver des vies.
