An upsurge of fighting in eastern Congo has seen an estimated 250,000 people flee their homes since late January. Oxfam is expanding its emergency response to provide support to an additional 150,000 people.
We are developing a flexible response to the new crisis that can provide water, sanitation and life-saving hygiene promotion to dispersed groups of people on the move, as well as larger groups of people sheltering in specific areas.
