These activities were carried out with technical support from IPIS and financial support from the <a href=\"https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/fr\/project\/madini-renforcer-la-stabilite-regionale-dans-les-grands-lacs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Madini Kwa Amani na Maendeleo project<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These workshops are a continuation of the work to document, monitor, and analyze incidents related to the mining sector in Ituri. Data collected in recent years <a href=\"https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/project\/kufatilia-incident-reporting-and-monitoring\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">via Kufatilia<\/a> has highlighted the need to strengthen local mechanisms for coordination, documentation, and response to incidents affecting communities living near mining sites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first workshop brought together civil society organizations and community structures active in the management of <strong>cases of gender-based violence<\/strong> (GBV). The discussions provided an opportunity to analyze existing practices for receiving alerts, documenting, referencing, and supporting those affected. The discussions also highlighted several operational challenges, including insecurity in certain areas, logistical constraints, and the limitations of current support mechanisms. The second day was devoted to <strong>mapping the actors involved in different health zones<\/strong> in the province. This exercise allowed to identify the services available, clarify the roles of each organization, and strengthen the complementarity of interventions in order to improve the effectiveness of local response mechanisms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_2709_Bunia-02.2026-scaled.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"41799\" src=\"https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_2709_Bunia-02.2026-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-41799\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_2709_Bunia-02.2026-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_2709_Bunia-02.2026-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_2709_Bunia-02.2026-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_2709_Bunia-02.2026-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_2709_Bunia-02.2026-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_2708_Bunia-02.2026-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"41796\" src=\"https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_2708_Bunia-02.2026-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-41796\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_2708_Bunia-02.2026-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_2708_Bunia-02.2026-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_2708_Bunia-02.2026-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_2708_Bunia-02.2026-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ipisresearch.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_2708_Bunia-02.2026-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>A specific capacity-enhancement workshop for members of the Kufatilia Network in Ituri then helped to <strong>consolidate skills in data analysis and evidence-based advocacy<\/strong>.
