The Democratic Republic of Congo:
The Democratic Republic of Congo is a very rich country in natural resources but yet it is one of the poorest countries in the world. How can that be possible?
This country has been to war nearly for a decade and it's economy has been in decline for two decades, seriously what is going on with the government?
When it comes to education; the Democratic Republic of Congo is below minimum imagine that, A greater portion of young children is not in primary school compared to fifteen years ago; many of those who do attend primary school do so irregularly; and even those who manage to reach the terminal year of primary, very few can read with comprehension or write simple sentences of textual matter. Quality is slow at every level of education with the content and standard of secondary and higher education not having been reformed for over two decades. Neither government finance nor external support - official or unofficial have been important source of finance, although they have been significant in certain critical interventions. Unique among African countries parents in the DRC finance almost all of education expenditures at all levels of instruction, from primary to higher education and more surprisingly in all types of institutions.
Now how can a country so rich not able to afford education? what is the government doing about it? Why can't the government use it's resources to make the country better. Seriously other countries are doing it. This country needs people who can stand up for their rights and who can stand up for what is right. We need educated, humble, open minded and transparent people to Run this country for the better.
We really need your help in helping out communities and building schools in order for educating the next generation that will RE-WRITE THE FUTURE. It's not all about music, dressing in designer clothes and showing off, it should be about lending a hand to your friend in need.
The education system in the RDC will play an important role in building the country's institutions, in promoting economic growth an din redressing inequalities.
Stay tuned for more updates on the first project.............
