Archbishop Justin visited HEAL Africa in Goma today with the Archbishop of Congo and the UK’s Minister for Africa, Mark Simmonds, to learn more about the devastating impact of sexual violence in conflict in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and see how the Anglican Church is working to end it.
HEAL Africa, a hospital which provides medical, psychosocial, spiritual and economic support to survivors of sexual violence, is run in partnership with the Anglican Church of the Congo and Tearfund.
The Archbishop is on the final day of a week-long visit to Anglican leaders in South Sudan, Burundi, Rwanda and the DRC.
