These honors recognize the nearly 25 years that Dr. Denis Mukwege has been an advocate for the cause. In 1999, he founded a hospital in the Democratic Republic of the Congo to treat survivors of sexual assault and rape in the ongoing conflict there. Mukwege and his staff at Panzi hospital in Bukavu have treated more than 80,000 women and girls, provided mental health support and helped break the stigma around survivors of rape.
