How not to report on Eastern Congo

Western media coverage of the DRC conflict is riddled with inaccuracies, oversimplifications, and racial bias—reinforcing dangerous narratives rather than informing the world.

"We can have different perspectives on the conflict and opposing theories about the geopolitics of the region, but these should be grounded on verified facts rather than sloppy coverage."

The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) sits at the forefront of the climate emergency and the green energy transition. With an estimated 70% of the world’s cobalt production—a mineral indispensable to rechargeable batteries that power green energy technologies—the DRC holds a pivotal role in our global future. Despite the country’s estimated $24 trillion in natural wealth, over two-thirds of the population lives in extreme poverty, creating dangerous and vulnerable situations for its inhabitants. A significant portion of cobalt is mined by artisanal miners, including children, who use rudimentary tools and sometimes crawl down 100-foot-deep holes to retrieve the mineral. Both children and adults face life-threatening risks, and these mining sites, often unregulated, pose severe health threats to surrounding communities, who often face deadly repercussions for speaking out.

You should be furious that people trying to escape genocide in Gaza, Sudan, Congo all need raise an absurd amount of money just to survive

You should be furious at how these people went through atrocity after atrocity and still need raise tens of thousands of dollars to get away

You should be furious at this insidious thing that completely encapsulates how capitalism feeds off of blood

Much of the smuggled gold is bound for Dubai before it is legally re-exported to other countries, a Swiss NGO says.

While we are still gathering and validating the data from this year, conflicts in #Sudan, #Ukraine, #Palestine, the #DRC and elsewhere, and sudden and slow onset disasters from the Americas to the Horn of #Africa, give us no reason to believe that the number of internally displaced people will decrease from the record of 75.9 million at the end of 2023. https://reliefweb.int/report/world/rising-displacement-renewed-commitment-solutions-2025

{#DRC} #Maladie inconnue à #Panzi : la société civile invite la #population au calme


Source: Radio Okapi, https://www.radiookapi.net/2024/12/07/actualite/sante/maladie-inconnue-panzi-la-societe-civile-invite-la-population-au-calme

{Excerpt}

L’ASBL Action Plus, une structure de la société civile locale œuvrant notamment dans le domaine de la santé, a appelé samedi 7 décembre la population au calme et à ne pas paniquer face à la maladie inconnue qui décime la population dans la zone de santé de Panzi située dans le territoire de Kasongo-Lunda (Kwango).

Le Gouvernement est en train de travailler et les experts sont déjà sur terrain pour faire face à cette maladie non encore diagnostiquée, a assuré Jude Tshangata, le coordonnateur de cette ASBL, lors d’un entretien avec radio Okapi.

Il a évoqué notamment le ministre provincial de la santé et sa suite, qui sont « en train de travailler d’arrachepied sur place » pour déterminer la vraie nature de cette maladie.

Jude Tshangata a plutôt invité la population locale au respect strict des règles d’hygiène édictées par les autorités sanitaires, pour limiter la transmission de cette maladie non encore diagnostiquée :

« Ce que nous demandons à la population, c’est d’appliquer les mesures de prévention parce que jusque-là, la maladie n’est pas encore connue. C’est pourquoi, (les habitants) doivent se protéger, se laver les mains régulièrement avec du savon, appliquer les mesures barrière comme cela est exigé par les professionnels de la santé ».

Il s’agit, selon lui, de ne pas toucher n’importe où, ne pas se saluer à la main, et aussi l’hygiène est exigée.
