Refugees
Refugees-
Many people in the Democratic have been displaced for various reasons. Among these, the biggest reason by far has been the raging in the country. To this day there are over 2.5million people from the Democratic Republic of Congo that have been displaced either internally, or in neighboring countries. It has been very difficult to try and move those who have been displaced because of the ongoing violence and insecurity. Another issue has been the poor road conditions and that even today violence continues to misplace people. All of this has caused the people who have been displaced to live in very bad living conditions. It has also made these people much easier targets for sexual violence, along with looting and murder.

Life of a Refugee This video describes the life of a refugee in Goma, D.R. Congo. It begins with her long journey to reach to reach the refugee camp, and how dangerous it was. Refugee camps provide more competition for resources and often times refugees will have to get by on inadequate resources. Many of the people in these camps have no sense of a community anymore, and life moving forward is uncertain.
