The Enough Project's
Raise Hope for Congo campaign launched the first-ever Instagram petition that
will be delivered to the winning U.S. Presidential candidate, urging the next
administration to make the conflict in eastern Congo a top priority. Activists
across the U.S. and Europe have joined the petition by Tweeting photos of
themselves holding signs with “Vote for Congo” messages using the hashtag
#Vote4Congo.
Raise Hope for
Congo celebrity activist Robin Wright is
spearheading the petition and have submitted her own “Vote for Congo” photo.
The conflict in
eastern Congo is the deadliest since World War II, and has claimed more than
five million lives. Over the past year, the emergence of a new rebel group in
eastern Congo has led to an upsurge of violence and instability throughout the
region. It is time for the U.S. administration to lead the way on helping to
resolve this ongoing conflict. So, what can we do to help?
