Dr Marthe Kondemo is visiting Australia from
the Democratic Republic of Congo to learn about innovative women's health and livelihood initiatives to see what may be replicable in the DRC. While here she
will meet a wide range of organisations dealing with such issues as domestic violence prevention, conflict resolution, peacebuilding, disability services
and youth engagement. Despite vast natural resources the DRC has suffered from
political instability, a lack of infrastructure, corruption and centuries of
commercial extraction and exploitation. Her visit is facilitated by Lucy
Hobgood-Brown from the Rotary E-Club of Greater Sydney.
