DRC's young youngest victims of sexual violence
X ‘We’ve had many children who’ve been made sexual slaves. They have severe mental trauma and their behaviour changes. They start to neglect themselves, they stop washing and take drugs especially glue and alcohol to forget. They feel disgusted with themselves.’ Ursylun Nun, Sister Deodata, and Co-ordinator of children\'s charity Alpha Ujuvi in North Kivu, The Democratic Republic of Congo. Her organisation supports vulnerable children, in particular orphans, children who\'ve suffered sexual violence, abandoned children, children with HIV and AIDS. Half of the children at their lodge have been raped, many by armed men. |
