Everyday justice and security provision for displaced and residents in Bukavu, DRC.

The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) is a country in which prolonged insecurity has caused long-term and cyclical displacement, especially in the east. Most Congolese flee to host communities within their own country. Bukavu is one of the cities in Congo that receives large numbers of displaced people. This research looks at the consequences of migration in terms of the justice and security concerns in the host communities, both for newcomers and for longer-term residents. The project will further analyse already collected qualitative and quantitative data and build on these data. Findings will be used to set up stakeholder consultations with policy-makers and practitioners at local, national, and international levels.
