Rerum cognoscere causas
This blog was born in October 2008 in Goma, DRC. It tries to interpret -sometimes descipher- and explain the dynamics of violence and war in North and South Kivu.
Thanks for stopping by,
Nicolás

I will do as much as possible to make my people, friends and family know what is really happening there!!!!
Thanks a lot for the message! That is exactly what we need, because if we don´t do it the media won´t do it for us
Thanks for the comment on my blog. Keep in touch.
Likewise–thanks for alerting me to your blog.
Great blog! With the mainstream media basically singing from the same songbook as powerful Western governments and multinational corporations, the internet seems to be one of the few tools available to bring this conflict to attention! I have spent a long time trying to find out why conflicts like that in the DRC cannot attract and maintain attention. I have written a book on the subject (called Stealth Conflicts) and have recently started a blog under the same title. I will link your blog. Let’s keep up the pressure!
This is a great, and important blog. I’m so happy to see people writing from ‘the front line’ so to speak. I only wish more journalists would do the same.
I’m starting a blog on the subject of the lack of media coverage on the DR Congo crisis to coincide with my masters thesis which will study it in comparison with the Gaza conflict, might be interesting for you to follow perhaps. And I’d be really delighted if you had any input, also.
Keep up the great work!
Hi,
thanks for your comment. Will follow your blog! All the best
