Survival Strategy: Congolese Tribes Resort to Marijuana Cultivation

Many Congolese tribes face extreme poverty and lack access to traditional forms of employment.

Cannabis cultivation provides a source of income that is relatively more stable compared to other crops.
The demand for cannabis within and outside the region creates a market that these tribes can tap into for financial sustenance.
