Denis Mukwege Mukengere

Denis Mukwege, a highly respected and accomplished Congolese gynecologist, has committed his life to the selfless pursuit of alleviating suffering and improving the lives of others. As the esteemed leader of Panzi Hospital in Bukavu, he has created a cutting-edge, specialized unit focused on providing comprehensive medical treatment and compassionate care to women who have been subjected to the most egregious forms of violence, perpetrated by armed rebels through the abhorrent act of sexual assault.
