Voices of the Youth from Eastern Congo: Survive


One young man from Eastern Democratic Republic of Congo recounts how he survived a bomb attack near his home and speaks about the life he envisages after the war stops.

This video is part of MSF's Condition: Critical, a multimedia project that gives a voice to the people affected by war in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo. MSF has been working in North and South Kivu provinces since 1992, carrying out emergency surgery, treating injuries such as gunshot wounds and burns, and running mobile clinics to reach those who have fled to remote areas. MSF teams respond to epidemics such as cholera and provide medical and mental health care to victims of sexual violence.
