Armed groups and military forces are using sexual violence as a weapon of war across eastern Democratic Republic of Congo.

Survivors experience a climate of impunity that protects those responsible and a healthcare system deprived of support.

The nooses are attached to thick ropes which are in turn connected to three distinct, colored clouds (yellow, green, blue) each emitting a network of white circuits.
