Le Plan Stratégique Multisectoriel d’Élimination du Choléra en République Démocratique du Congo (2013-2017) vise à réduire l’incidence du choléra à moins d’un cas pour 100 000 habitants. Ce plan repose sur une approche multisectorielle, combinant santé, eau, hygiène et assainissemen...t pour enrayer la transmission du choléra.
Il identifie trois types de zones : zones sources (A), zones épidémiques (B) et zones de diffusion (C), chacune nécessitant des interventions adaptées. Les stratégies incluent l’amélioration des infrastructures d’eau potable et d’assainissement, la surveillance épidémiologique, la prévention, la prise en charge médicale et la coordination des actions.
Malgré des progrès dans certaines régions, la mise en œuvre du plan a rencontré des défis, notamment en raison du manque de financements et de la persistance de foyers endémiques dans l'Est du pays. Une coordination nationale et internationale est essentielle pour mobiliser les ressources et atteindre l'objectif d'élimination du choléra en RDC.

These people experience varying combinations of p...oor housing, lack of education, poor educational attainment, lack of access to safe sanitation and improved drinking water, and direct exposure to conflict.
Shan and Ayeyarwady have the largest populations of vulnerable persons, a function of both their size and relative vulnerability in comparison to other States and Regions. Yangon and Shan show the widest variation in vulnerability across townships (in terms of the number of vulnerable persons and their level of vulnerability), followed by Mandalay, Chin and Rakhine.
