Abstract:

Hope is diminishing that a deal to remove President Joseph Kabila from power, brokered by the country's church leaders at the beginning of 2017, may be falling apart. While activists mount a 'silent protest', tribal violence is flaring in rural areas and exposing how disjointed and volatile the country remains.
