The goal of this document—and the research process that underpins it—is to articulate the model that the Good Shepherd Sisters (GSS) have been implementing in Kolwezi in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). By consulting with stakeholders from multiple levels—the GoodShepherd Sisters and their staff, participants in their programs, community members who are not involved in the program, government and non-government partners, and mining company representatives—we aimed to document what the Good Shepherd Sisters have been doing in Kolwezi over the past five years with an eye to provide constructive recommendations about the future of the program, which is currently under review for possible replication in areas around Kolwezi
