What we do

Five areas, one mission: defending the integrity, unity and dignity of the Congo.

01 Defending sovereignty

one Congo, indivisible

Mobilizing the global diaspora to firmly denounce external aggression, reject foreign occupation, and block any attempt of balkanization in DRC.

why it matters

For decades, eastern Congo has suffered wars fuelled by foreign interests and the plunder of its natural resources. Millions of lives have been lost and entire communities displaced.

The diaspora lives in the very capitals where many decisions about the Congo are made. That gives us a responsibility: to make the voice of the Congolese people heard, peacefully and relentlessly.

how we act

Peaceful mobilization

Rallies, marches and vigils in the capitals of the diaspora to denounce aggression and occupation.

Advocacy

Letters, petitions and meetings with elected officials and international bodies to defend the borders of the DRC.

Conflict minerals

Campaigns against the illegal exploitation of Congolese resources and the supply chains that finance armed groups.

02 National Unity & education

together, we are the Congo

Promoting republican togetherness, rejecting tribal divisions, and educating the diaspora’s younger generations to resist dangerous networks of malicious disinformation.

rejecting division

Those who want to weaken the Congo rely on our divisions. The League answers with unity: a Congolese of Kinshasa, Lubumbashi, Goma or Mbandaka is first and foremost a Congolese.

Our chapters bring together members of every province and every generation around the same republican values.
