Grand Nord Kivu is a province in East DRC (along with South Kivu and Ituri) with recurrent violence and numerous epidemics (measles, cholera, Ebola…).
The challenges are numerous: no reliable health system, deplorable schooling, food insecurity…. The association SOS Enfants is working to meet these challenges alongside its local partner, LIDE ( Development League in Congo) based in Butembo.
And so, the Maison de l’Artemisia du Grand Nord Kivu was created in 2019 in collaboration with SOS Enfants and LIDE to provide a local and accessible solution for the fight against malaria.
