About this person
She became involved in activism, joining the Catholic Lay Coordination Committee (CLC) and organizing protests against then-president Joseph Kabila in 2017-18. Crackdowns forced her into hiding for over a year until the beginning of Félix Tshisekedi's presidency in 2019. She was appointed as the tenth Minister of Gender, Family, and Children in 2024.
