Donald Trump’s failed Peace deal in the DRC reveals issues with modern peace agreements “They continue to fight and continue to talk about peace. It has left us feeling misled”.

Art awakens consciences where words fail. Through his works, the artist denounces the suffering of the Congo Basin forest and the global ecological crisis, pollution, degradation, and deforestation, and aims to awaken our humanity.

Rural and indigenous communities, low in carbon emissions, protect the planet, but are crushed by debt imposed by the IMF, the World Bank, and major polluters. The DRC, a solution country, is impoverished even though it holds immense climate potential.

From September 5th to 6th, I participated in the Climate and Youth Summit via the Youth Empowerment Fund #worldywca, @ifrc.org , @redcrosscstr.bsky.social As a young person committed to climate justice, I spoke out for the DRC, affected by conflicts and injustices despite its wealth. 🌍✊🏾

Aujourd'hui, j'ai capturé un arc-en-ciel. 🌈🥰
Partout, il inspire des mythes… mais au-delà des légendes, retenons ceci,

L’arc-en-ciel n’a pas de rôle direct dans le climat, mais il reste un symbole fort de renouveau, de transformation et d'espoir pour un monde plus vert🌍💚

I was told that in a village in South Kivu, children paid 500 FCFA ($0.17) to fighters (Wazalendo) to shoot in the air, just for fun, depending on the amount paid. This may seem trivial, almost humorous... but it is actually a sign of a wounded society, where violence has become a daily spectacle🥲

In Uvira, near Lake Tanganyika in the eastern part of the DR Congo, a video shows an armed young man chasing a hippopotamus through the marshes. It is a shocking scene that speaks volumes: here, weapons not only destroy human lives, they also attack our environment and our natural heritage.

📣 🌎 International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples: Let's unite our voices for the Pygmies! 🇨🇩

Their role in protecting the environment is crucial. Climate justice requires the recognition of their rights.

Let's commit to a sustainable and inclusive future! 🌍🤝.

I was there and I experienced it.

Unfortunately, the same crimes continue, and the perpetrators freely rake in titles and millions.

The European Commission went full on radio silence on the EU-Mercosur trade deal.

That's probably because there is a lack of consensus over the deal.

Maybe they also realised how bad it is.
