Extract

 

All together, let us fight against the fact that sexual violence is taken as weapon. For me this is a "barbarous weapon". All together say no to the behavior of different nations all over the world that never think about this Great Lakes tragedy, about the situation of women. In DRC, North Kivu, the situation is more cruel than ever up to the level of being qualified as "sexual Tsunami".

 

From this Millennia2015 document, we are getting together. Keeping together will allow us to work together, then the success will be found in the tangible help we will provide to those oppressed people.
