Food insecurity in the Democratic Republic of Congo
The European Union has donated 2.5 million euros to FAO to help war affected families in the eastern Congolese provinces of North and South Kivu, including women who have suffered assaults. With the financial support of the EU, FAO’s main donor in DR Congo, the organization launched a three-year project to assist 95 000 of the most vulnerable rural families.
