Description: This report presents the results of a population survey undertaken by the Human Rights Center  (HRC) at the University of California, Berkeley, the Payson Center at Tulane University, and the International  Center for Transitional Justice (ICTJ). Focusing on areas most affected by conflict in eastern  DRC, surveys were conducted from September to December 2007 among a sample population of  2,620 individuals in the Ituri district in Oriental province and the provinces of North and South Kivu.  The report concentrates its analysis on the survey results in eastern DRC, but comparative interviews  were also conducted among a sample population of 1,133 individuals in Kinshasa and Kisangani. The  survey sought to assess exposure to violence among the population; understand the priorities and  needs of Congolese civilians affected by the conflicts; and capture attitudes about peace, social reconstruction,  and transitional justice mechanisms.
