Denis Mukwege: in Martinique, repairing women and the world

In Martinique, the visit of Denis Mukwege gave special weight to the word reparation. From May 2 to 8, 2026, the 2018 Nobel Peace Prize laureate met with residents, healthcare professionals, students and elected representatives to share a common message: treating bodies is not enough if societies leave violence against women in silence. A week to hear a global voice Martinique has not only welcomed a famous doctor. It welcomed a man whose name is linked to one of the great moral struggles of our time. Denis Mukwege, a Congolese gynecologist, has dedicated his life to women survivors of sexual violence in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

“Konbit”: the Haitian word that turns self-help into a party

Saint-Vincent and the Grenadines – The Garifuna language: Saint-Vincent wants to save it through schools

In St. Vincent and the Grenadines, the Garifuna language could leave the circle of commemorative speeches and enter the classroom more clearly. At the 13th International Garifuna Conference, Prime Minister Dr Godwin Friday called for the language to be taught as an essential subject. The announcement touches a deep nerve: that of an Afro-Aboriginal memory long displaced, but never extinguished. A highly symbolic political statement The choice of location and subject is not insignificant. In Saint-Vincent and the Grenadines, to speak of the Garifuna language is to return to one of the founding territories of this history. This people, born of African and indigenous Caribbean encounters, carries a memory of resistance, exile and transmission that extends far beyond the borders of the city. By placing the school at the center of his appeal, Dr. Godwin Friday isn’t just talking about a program to be added. He refers to education as
