Transforming Trash Into Hope: Congo Midwives
3|
Since Secretary of State Hillary Clinton ended her African trip, the news cycle has seemingly abandoned the women of Congo–women who soldier on despite overwhelming odds that make staying alive a gauntlet rife with terrible odds. But lives continue to unfold, babies are born, mammas die, and hope burns with a fire that even the rainstorms which pummel the plastic dwellings at the Mugunga I displacement camp cannot extinguish. Secretary Clinton spoke eloquently about her experiences at Mugunga I and she is a powerful witness to the societal breakdown in eastern Congo.

Congo is worst place for any human being to stay, specially the women and children.
I wish these midwives, good luck in their mission. Hope they overcome any obstacle in their path and go on successfully to accomplish this great cause.
This proves that light can shine in the darkest of place if someone has will power to do so. Great efforts, good luck to these ladies.
