Ethics, Citizenship, Leadership and Sustainable Development in DR Congo

By Jonas Mualaba Citala

Creating a Congo "more beautiful than before in peace" is a duty that the Congolese have assigned themselves and that they have sung in their national anthem since the accession of this country to independence (1960). It seems utopian considering the age of this country today (62 years old) and the realities on the ground. The author believes that we will achieve it one day if the new citizenship conditions the action and the experience of the Congolese before the Nation and before the Eternal God. If the Congolese are committed today to an ethical management of the Nation at all levels of responsibility, under the impetus of a new leadership and by soaking up the Scriptures, the principles linked to the culture of peace--advocated by UNESCO--, ideas drawn from the South African Ubuntu philosophy and the "pedagogy of the oppressed" (of Paolo Freire), change will soon follow. Moreover, the new Congolese citizenship/ethics (explained in this book) remains, in the opinion of the author, the first project of the Republic. She speaks to the conscience of the Congolese individually and collectively while cultivating the desire to live together peacefully and aesthetically.
