The mission of Arche d’Alliance is to promote peace and defend human rights. The NGO was formed in 1997 in response to the numerous human rights violations in South Kivu after the war in the DRC (1996-2003), which led to widespread human rights abuses and societal breakdown.
The NGO is involved in research, documentation of human rights violations, human rights education, legal aid to victims of rights violations, particularly disadvantaged children and female survivors of sexual violence and other forms of discrimination, and advocacy for legal reform to protect better the rights of women and children.
- Promoting peace through conflict resolution activities
