UN SDG Action Campaign 114d ago

As we get ready for #InternationalWomensDay, we shine a light on the women who turn adversity into collective action — proving again and again that women build the strongest peace. Sandrine Lusamba reminded the world that women in the DRC have carried the consequences of conflict for decades — yet continue to lead efforts toward peace, education, and human rights. SOFEPADI ensures survivors receive holistic support, advocates for structural change, and mobilizes communities to champion peacebuilding initiatives. Their work demonstrates the central role women play in rebuilding societies. Her message: listen to women, elevate their leadership, and recognize peace as everyone’s responsibility. #ForAllWomenAndGirls #IWD2026 #InternationalWomensDay #GenderEquality #HeroesofTomorrow #SDGAwards
