“The illegal exploitation of resources is almost universally recognized as the underlying driver behind a civil war that has caused the deaths of over six million people. So we owe it to the people of eastern Congo to address these issues of natural resource management. That’s really what the park is about.”
“I enjoy witnessing the breathtaking nature within the Park’s boundaries. Being called a Ranger fills me with pride and commitment to protecting its precious ecosystems.”
–Emmanuel, Virunga Park Ranger
