3 SOCIAL COHESION: Relations across ethnic groups are worsening in North Kivu Poll results collected for Poll 7 over the last quarter showed a strong decline in the perceived quality of relations between members of different ethnic groups in North Kivu. The provincial average of people reporting good relations with members of different ethnic groups declined from 78% (Poll 5, Q4 2015) to 65% (Poll 7) over the past six months. This trend is particularly pronounced in areas affected by current military activities against the FDLR with Rutshuru (a decline of ), Lubero (24%), and Butembo (28%) recording the steepest decline. However, it should be noted that no such deterioration in inter-ethnic relations was recorded in Beni Ville, in spite of the recent violence. Trends in people s perception of their relations with other ethnic groups (% positive) 75% 78% 77% 74% NORTH KIVU 65% Rutshuru, 6 City of Butembo, 54% Lubero, 47% Poll 3 - Q Poll 4 - Q Poll 5 - Q Poll 6 - Q Poll 7 - Q Data from June 2015 to June 2016 A comparative analysis of the data along gender lines indicates that women have more negative views than men on their relations with other ethnic groups. For men, the deterioration in inter-ethnic relations is slow but steady over the last four polls. In contrast, the proportion of women reporting positive relations with members of other ethnic groups remained steady until the last poll, when there has been a steep decline. Trends in people s perception of their relations with other ethnic groups, by gender (% positive) 8 81% 75% 74% - Men % 57% - Women Poll 4 - Q Poll 5 - Q Poll 6 - Q Poll 7 - Q Données de Septembre 2015 à Juin 2016 Peacebuilding and Reconstruction Polls, Report 7, 08/2016 3
4 NONGOVERNMENTAL ASSISTANCE Low satisfaction with civil society and the United Nations efforts in urban areas For the first time since these polls have been conducted, poll 7 examined the population s perceptions of humanitarian and development aid actors including national (NGOs) and international nongovernmental organizations (INGOs), as well as United Nations agencies in improving the overall conditions in their communities. It should be noted that these questions will be repeated during the next poll and further analysis will be forthcoming after Poll 8 (September 2016). The findings from Poll 7 show that the contribution of international NGOs and UN agencies in the provincial capitals of Goma and Bukavu (North and South Kivu, respectively) is considered negligible. About 90% of respondents in these locations (Goma 89%, Bukavu, 96%) reported that these international actors provide little to no contribution to improving living conditions in their village or neighborhood. Respondents in Bunia, the capital city of the newly formed province of Ituri were only slightly more positive, with 70% reporting little to no contribution by these actors. Generally, people s perception of the impact of peacebuilding efforts on improving the conditions in their communities was also very negative.

The perceived contribution of international NGOs was most positive in the territories of Masisi (5: some - a lot) and Ir umu (4: some - a lot) where INGO interventions are relatively high in number as well as sizable.

6 The perceived contribution of international NGOs and of the United Nations varies along gender lines. In Masisi and Irumu, almost two out of three men (65% and 6 respectively) judged the contribution of INGOS and the UN positively, compared to less than half of all women in Masisi (44%) and less than one out of every four women in Irumu (2). In other territories, such as Rutshuru, Idjwi or Mahagi, women held a more positive opinion than men. Similar trends exist in the perceived contribution of local NGOs.

7 ELECTIONS The risk of violence associated with the elections is ranked high, stable over time The upcoming elections for the presidency and the general assembly, scheduled to take place on 27 November 2016, have been featured topics during the polls carried out in March and June The results indicate that 4 of respondents perceive the risk of election related violence in their neighborhood as being high or very high. The perceived risk of violence varies greatly between territories. The highest percentages were recorded South Kivu (58%, for the province as a whole), with 89% of respondents in Shabunda reporting an elevated risk of electoral violence during the next elections. It should be noted that Shabunda does not have a recent history of political rallies or recent political violence. Nonetheless, it can be considered a territory with a high level of insecurity. Recent poll data indicate a strong decline in people s trust in the police as a security provider the percentage of people who trust the police to ensure security has dropped from 41% to 19% in the last six months. It is also worth noting that in Beni Ville, almost one out of every three persons (65%) consider the risk of electoral violence to be high. This could be reflected in the recent tensions and violent incidents in that region. The perceived risk of election related violence also varies greatly between men and women. Half of the men in the Eastern Congo (50%) consider that the risk of electoral violence is high, compared to only one out every three women (34%). In South Kivu, almost two out of three men (68%) consider the risk of electoral violence to be high.

In March-June 2016, 4 of people in the Eastern Congo considered the risk election related violence to be high, compared to 40% in September-December At the provincial level, there is also very little change to be observed in North Kivu and Ituri. However, in South Kivu, the percentage of people describing the risk of electoral violence as high increased from 51% to 58% over the same period. This increase is mostly the result of the change recorded in Shabunda. There has also been an important increase in the percentage of people judging the risk of electoral violence as high in Goma City.

9 GOVERNANCE: Low levels of satisfaction with the delivery of key services and peacebuilding objectives may fuel violence The government s efforts in various sectors such peacebuilding, improving relations between different groups, or improving the living conditions of Congolese is rarely judged positively, especially in the North and South Kivu. In Ituri, the population viewed the government s efforts more positively. Based on the most recent polling data from all territories and cities in the East, 38% of respondents viewed the government s efforts in combatting sexual violence offenses as either good or very good. Only 17% of adults in North Kivu have a positive opinion of the government s efforts to provide security, compared to 1 in South Kivu and 44% in Ituri province. The most positive views among the 25 territories and cities were held in Mambasa and Djugu, while the least positive opinions were found in Idjwi.

The index score ranges from 1 (very positive) to 5 (very negative). The results confirm that the government s efforts are viewed more negatively in South Kivu (average score of 4.1) compared to North Kivu (average score of 3.9) and especially Ituri (average score of 3.2). The overall score for the East of the DRC was 3.8. At the provincial level, one can observe differences in the views held by women and men in Ituri and South Kivu. Men had more negative views than women (Ituri: 3.4 v 2.9; South Kivu: 4.2 v 3.9). Peacebuilding and Reconstruction Polls, Report 7, 08/2016 9

An analysis of the poll results for March and June 2016 reveal a notable link between the increase in perceived risk of electoral violence and negative attitudes toward public services. The average satisfaction score regarding the government s efforts was significantly lower (more positive) amongst people who considered the risk of electoral violence to be low, compared to those who perceived the risk of election related violence to be high. This analysis demonstrates that there is a direct relationship between the government s efforts in peacebuilding related sectors and the perceived risk of electoral violence. This can be explained by the fact that people who are very unsatisfied are more aggressive and cynical with regards to the risk of violence, or that they judge the government s capacity to contain violence negatively.
