Presentation
The Mukwege Chair is based on a double strength.
Four pillars
It is based on the hollistic model developed by Dr Mukwege.
- Medical care
- Psychological care
- Socio-economic reintegration
- Legal support
These are mixed with the more transversal fields of history and anthropology.
A double approach
In this model and within the Chair, each pillar is crossed by two approaches:
- an academic approach (presentation of research results)
- an empirical approach. The latter gives the floor to associations, NGOs and scientists who highlight data from the field and question the possible generalisation of research results by highlighting the weight of contextual factors (political, cultural, geographical).
