This qualitative study explores and describes adolescent risk behaviors, specifically consumption of alcohol and use of violence; the perceived consequences of these behaviors on future well-being and relationships; and collaboratively identifies the essential components of a prevention intervention for risk behaviors (alcohol use, violence) among young adolescents while strengthening the protective individual and relationship factors in post-conflict Democratic Republic of Congo. One-on-one in-depth interviews were conducted with 28 male and female youth, 20 parents/guardians and 20 stakeholders in three rural villages of South Kivu Province. Trained interviewers conducted interviews and participated in daily debriefing. Descriptive qualitative analysis was used to analyze the data. Youth use of violence and alcohol was associated with a range of factors including peer influence, parent behaviors, school enrollment and poverty. The consequences of risk behavior include damaged family and social bonds, reduced economic and educational productivity and promise. Community-based, multilevel prevention interventions that promote protective factors and reduce youth exposure and vulnerability to risk factors may have immediate and long-term impact on youth health and behavior. Such a program could engage youth, adults and local stakeholders in a range of social, educational and economic activities.
