After her final return to RFI in 1990, Dupont worked only about African issues: with UNITA in Angola, in Sierra Leone in the territories handed by the RUF, Djibouti, Ethiopia-Eritrea conflict, Rwanda, Sudan, Algeria and Ivory Coast where she revealed the existence of mass graves in Abidjan.
She was active in the Democratic Republic of Congo between 1997 and 2007.

In 2002, she was involved in the creation of Radio Okapi in the DRC.
"The Frequency of Peace" was created at the initiative of the Swiss Hirondelle Foundation, an NGO active in supporting the media in crisis situations, with the support of the UN Mission in the DRC (MONUC).
