An Urgent Challenge: Rebuilding Lives in the DRC
Across the DRC, thousands of families—especially women and children displaced by conflict—are forced to live without safe shelter.
Public funding is essential to make this project viable at scale. It provides capital for land and infrastructure that private donations alone rarely cover.
Capital Intensity
Building weather-resistant foundations, sanitation, and electricity demands predictable cash flow supplied by government participation.
Vital Public Services
Shelters require formal linkage to state health, security, and social work services to ensure long-term stability for residents.
The Ask: Co-funding the Future of Shelter
Phase one focuses on high-density urban areas like Kinshasa.
Infrastructure
Capital for land acquisition, site preparation, water, and drainage systems.
Operations
Staffing costs for professional social services and specialized health outreach.
Sustainability
Alignment with national social protection policies for long-term impact.
Commitment
Demonstrating government resolve to attract international donor partnerships.
Transparency
- Publish quarterly progress and financial reports
- Conduct annual independent audits
- Use data-driven performance indicators
- Joint monitoring with community representatives
