Gugu Mbatha-Raw Instagram – In the DR Congo, where one of the world’s most complex humanitarian crises unfolds, we met Cadette.

She fled her village in 2014 when devastating floods took everything, including her mother.
UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador @gugumbatharaw recalls the day they spent together in her personal essay for @people.

In the eastern part of the country, violence and restricted humanitarian access add to the hardships.

This crisis may not make headlines, but the need for urgent support is critical for families like Cadette’s. 💙 | Posted on 23/May/2024 21:29:04

Gugu Mbatha-Raw Instagram – “There’s a huge, soft power in the stories that are told. It’s a form of therapy, catharsis, in a way. 
Even if it’s pure escapism” 💕

When @marieclaireuk invited me to be the cover of their Self Love issue, we got into a conversation about the different types of power we possess.

It reminded me of some wise words by Alice Walker.
“The most common way people give away their power, is by thinking they don’t have any”

Stand in your power today 🌷
