Hou jij ook zo van koffie? Heel wat goede koffie komt uit Kivu en Ituri, streken in Oost-Congo waar al jaren hevige gevechten plaatsvinden tussen rebellengroepen en de staat. Hoe slagen koffieboeren erin om ondanks die moeilijke situatie toch koffie te produceren en te verkopen? Coöperatieven spelen daarin een belangrijke rol, legt UGent-onderzoeker Wannes Slosse uit.
