Key-note lecture - Re-constructive pelvic surgery after gender-based violence
Nobel Prize Laureate
Denis Mukwege
photo is the property of the communication department of Panzi Hospital
Denis Mukwege is a Congolese (D.R.C.) gynecologist, born on March 1, 1955 in Bukavu.
After high school completion and some University courses in the D.R.C, he studied general medicine at the Université Officielle de Bujumbura (Burundi) followed by a specialization in obstetrics and gynecology from the Faculty of Specialized medicine in Angers (France). He holds a doctorate degree (PhD) in medical sciences from the Université Libre de Bruxelles.
Doctor Mukwege has been working for over 20 years with survivors of sexual violence and women with severe gynecological problems at the Panzi Hospital which he founded in 1999.
The hospital and Panzi Foundation have been recognized for their work and specialized responses to sexual gender based violence, but also for advocating for the rights and empowerment of Congolese women.
They created a holistic care model called “One Stop Center” which integrates psychological and medical care, legal assistance and socio-economic support to survivors of sexual violence. It is now implemented in different countries in Africa, Asia and Europe.
An outspoken advocate for the rights of survivors of sexual violence, Dr. Mukwege has raised awareness on the so-called ‘conflict minerals’ which fuel the violence in the Great Lakes region of Africa and he tirelessly called upon the International Community to hold perpetrators to account. He strives for women’s rights, peace and quality healthcare for all.
His action and dedication have been recognized worldwide with various awards : The United Nations Human Rights Prize (2008), the Olof Palme Prize (2009), “Officier de la Légion d’Honneur” from the French government (2013), etc.
In 2014, the European Parliament unanimously elected him the Sakharov Prize Laureate; their highest recognition, in 2016, he was awarded the Seoul Peace Prize. In 2018 he received the Nobel Peace Prize with Nadia Murad.
He has also received honorary degrees from different Universities in Europe and America such as a doctorate from the faculty of medicine in Umeå, Sweden (2010), a doctorate of law from the Manitoba University in Canada (2014), a doctorate of science from the Harvard University (2015) and a Doctorate from the University of Angers, in France (2018).
Denis Mukwege is married to Madam Madeleine Mapendo Kaboyi; together they have five children.
