Every Sack, a Step Forward | From Survival To Governance

Faulestine Mutsindu, coordinator of FIPROS, handles bags of sweet potato flour in a production warehouse in North Kivu, Democratic Republic of Congo, on March 27, 2026.
Through FIPROS, she established income-generating programs focused on the production and sale of sweet potato flour, an activity they had been carrying out from the Masisi territory. This provided women survivors of the conflict with a path to economic independence until the war forced them to flee to Goma, where they also welcomed widows and women facing difficulties in their homes.
In a region where the United Nations estimates that more than 25 million people face severe food insecurity, these community initiatives represent both an act of survival and a form of resistance.
