International Mukwege Chair
La Chaire internationale sur « La violence faite aux femmes et aux filles dans les conflits » (en abrégé « Chaire Mukwege ») est le fruit d’une démarche initiée par la professeure émérite (ULiège) Véronique De Keyser, Députée européenne honoraire, suite aux premiers contacts du Docteur Denis Mukwege en novembre 2013 avec les psychologues de la Faculté de Psychologie, Logopédie et Sciences de l’Éducation (FPLSE) et les médecins du CHU de Liège, dans le but de mettre sur pied des programmes de coopération pour le suivi des survivantes de violences sexuelles.
