The Congo
Our Work
MiracleFeet’s partner in the Republic of the Congo is the Centre de Ressources et des Compétences pour le Développement Communautaire (CERCODE.C), a multi-sectoral public health and development organization with extensive experience working with vulnerable populations across Congo. Its mission: improving access to health services, strengthening community resilience, and addressing socio-economic and environmental vulnerabilities. The organization’s work is guided by the core principles of equality, equity, accountability, discipline, and solidarity, ensuring consistency and quality across interventions.
CERCODE.C’s experience in sexual and reproductive health, including family planning, HIV/AIDS care, youth counseling, maternal and child health awareness, and large-scale communication campaigns, serves as a strong foundation for integrating clubfoot early detection into existing maternal and child health platforms. Its community outreach systems and communication networks provide strong case identification, referral pathways, and caregiver sensitization for clubfoot.
CERCODE.C’s previous education and youth engagement activities in hard-to-reach areas, such as Ouesso and Sibiti, demonstrate strong community trust and access, platforms which are now leveraged to support early identification of suspected clubfoot cases and improve referral linkages between communities and treatment centers.
