Condition: Critical - Voices from the war in eastern Congo

London-based organisation "Medecins Sans Frontieres/Doctors Without Borders" is launching the multi-media project, giving a voice to the people of Congo, specifically in the North Kivu region where war is (and has been for years) leaving many dead, injured or homeless - see the trailer at condition-critical.org.

Here are some amazing photos by Cédric Gerbehaye, World Press Photo Award winning photographer.

View on the displaced camp in Nyanzale, North Kivu.

Registration of a displaced family in Lushebere camp, North Kivu. This family of 8 will have to stay in one single hut.

On the right: This man is accompanying his son of nine months, shot in the leg during an attack on their village. The same fighting that killed his wife and dispersed his family.

A shelter without adequate protection in a camp for internally displaced persons in Nyanzale.

This project will last a year and aims to bring the people of north Kivu to the attention of the world and will be updated regularly with content from on the ground in Congo - more info.

And by the way, he draws some nice space girls, too:
