More inclusive youth engagement in improving public services in South Kivu
Our first strategy: training young monitors to follow schools and health centres in South Kivu, with user committees.
Since 2017, three successive strategies have guided our work. Each builds on the lessons of the one before: from South Kivu to the whole country, from schools to public services, and today the reconstruction of the East.
