Some quotes from these texts
“With regard to the traumatic events which they had suffered, the pupils told us that they had been traumatised from a very young age up to the day of the conversation because, according to them, they had been born during the war and had grown up in the same situation up to that day.”
“For more than two decades, rape has become a weapon of war in the DRC.”
