Abstract
In this topical, we would like to find out how to skirt the disaster produced by the CORONAVIRUS on food security side in kalehe territory and warning taste against that pandemic which affected almost all the countries in the word whose DR Congo is among.The south-kivu province is among the provinces affected in DR Congo. Concerning kalehe territory in south-kivu; it lank the north-kivu province to the south-kivu province and both the two provinces are already affected by the pandemic CORONAVIRUS. The same territory is in touch with neighboring countries such Rwanda which is affected too and has been confined since March.After many years of political and economical war managed armed groups since 1996 and followed by a series of natural disasters terrorizing kalehe population, the pandemic CORONAVIRUS, a murderous disease shakes anyone on its crossing, remains also a serious danger for kalehe territory.Right now, for the sake of preventing that disease; kalehe population is confined as wel as their neighbors. This situation exited in us the following questions:- What will be the destiny of this miserable population living absolutely of live lihood possessing neither supply nor financial or material means for its food security in this period of confinement?- What will be the population lifestyle after the CORONAVIRUS period?- What preventive safety on the food scheme so that everyone may be hopeful of living in this hard period and prevent a potential social and economic crisis and/or a hunger of catastrophe bound by that pandemic?Thanks to this series of questions, the improvement of food remains, for us a filled medicine to ease the population this hard food period.This is possible to reach because kalehe territory owns lots exploitable potentialities such as cultivable land, watercourse the two main national roads; the road going from Bukavu to Goma and the one going Bukavu to Bunyakiri till Walikale and the lake kivu is among those potentialities.The ful filment of this, needs the help of the government and N.G.O technically, materially and financially in this saving of emergency gesture.The food help and the growing of short duration of ripeness like vegetables and fruits along with cereals to reduce food difficulties during painful period and expect a best future.
