Introduction
North and South Kivu are two eastern provinces of the Democratic
Republic of the Congo (DRC), nestled along the borders with Rwanda, Uganda, and
Burundi. These provinces are known for their stunning natural beauty, diverse
populations, and extraordinary mineral wealth. However, they are also among the
most conflict-affected areas in Africa, grappling with protracted insecurity,
displacement, and humanitarian crises. Understanding the socio-political
dynamics of North and South Kivu is essential for grasping the broader
challenges and opportunities facing the DRC.
