IRIN DRC Special - Countdown in Congo. The news, views and facts behind the

country’s forthcoming general election.

July 30 marks the first time in 45 years that the Democratic Republic of the

Congo will hold a general election. IRIN has created a special page offering you

an insight into this historic event. Our illustrated reports, news and

background stories will help you better understand life in one of Africa’s

largest countries - a nation suffering poverty amid natural riches, haunted by

conflicts but full of life and hope.

IRIN Somalia Special - Future Uncertain. Since the Union of Islamic Courts took

over the Somali capital, Mogadishu, on 4 June, there has been a new sense of

uncertainty for the war-ravaged, drought-stricken Horn of Africa country. IRIN

examines what is at stake and reports on the situation as it develops.

Hear Our Voices - new stories from the field. This special page is devoted

exclusively to the many people caught up in crises of one kind or another who

are often written about, filmed and discussed, but seldom have the opportunity

to tell their stories to the world. This page gives them an opportunity to tell

the global humanitarian family how such crises affect their lives, their

families and their communities.
