Floribert Mubalama:
A Visionary Leader Guiding Change Locally and Globally
I am Floribert Mubalama, the Founder and CEO of the Congolese Integration Network (CIN), a beacon of hope and transformation for refugees and vulnerable communities. My journey began in the Democratic Republic of Congo, where I fled the devastation and chaos of my homeland, seeking refuge in Malawi. The refugee camp, where I spent eight challenging years, became both my sanctuary and my classroom, teaching me about resilience, compassion, and the undeniable strength of the human spirit.
Local Impact:
Building Communities and Transforming Lives.
Upon resettling in Washington State, USA, I was driven by a burning question:
“How can I give back?” The answer crystallized into the Congolese Integration Network, established on July 22nd, 2016. Our local mission is to:
• Empower Women: By prioritizing mental health, housing, and skill development, we help survivors of trauma not merely survive but thrive.
• Create a Vibrant Community Center: The envisioned Refugee Welcoming & Healing Center will serve as a one-stop hub, fostering a deep sense of belonging and providing vital services to immigrants and refugees.
• Develop Affordable Housing: Tailoring housing solutions for vulnerable populations, including seniors, to ensure safe and accessible homes.
• Engage and Empower Youth: Through sports, recreation, and environmental programs, we sculpt the leaders of tomorrow, connecting them with opportunities for growth and community bonding.
Global Vision:
Championing Health, Innovation, and Inclusivity.
My commitment extends beyond local boundaries, reflecting a global vision:
1.
Promote Global Health: Committed to enhancing the health and well-being of populations worldwide, I advocate for sustainable practices that cater to the most vulnerable.
2.
Innovate in Global Health: As a strategic partner of the Global Innovation Exchange Platform, I collaborate with innovators and stakeholders, supporting the development of inclusive and scalable global health innovations.
3.
Foster Collaboration and Change: Through CIN, I aim to make a meaningful difference in the global health landscape, leveraging partnerships, insights, and compassion to create lasting change.
