About Us

about the LPCD

The Ligue des Patriotes Congolais de la Diaspora (LPCD) is the umbrella organization of Congolese women and men abroad who refuse to remain spectators while their homeland suffers. Bound by the same love for the Democratic Republic of the Congo, we turn the diaspora into an organized, disciplined and peaceful force serving the sovereignty, unity and dignity of the Congolese people.

who we are

Born from the mobilization of the diaspora against the war in eastern DRC, the League is a non-partisan movement loyal to the Republic. It welcomes every Congolese patriot, whatever their province, origin, religion or political sensitivity.

Today the LPCD is established in eight countries in Europe and North America. Its national coordinations share a common Fundamental Charter and a common oath: never betray the Congo.
