Kinshasa, April 8th, 2021 (CPA).– Prof. Daniel Mulenda Lomena, on Wednesday recommended to DRC to adopt the model of green governance, during a ceremony for the opening of his book entitled “Green Governance and economic emergence in DRC”, chaired by the Minister in charge of Higher and University Education (ESU), Thomas Luhaka Losendjola, in the conference room of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in Gombe municipality.
The author indicated that this new work is intended as a contribution to the threats that global warming poses to civilization, as well as to the failure of liberal policies to stem the progression of poverty and inequalities in the world, in general and in DRC in particular.
Hence the objectives assigned to his book are to analyze the economic growth achieved in DRC and to present the approach of green governance in DRC to achieve the emergence of the Congolese economy, he said.
According to Prof. Daniel Mulenda Lomena, economic emergence as achieved by the countries of « BRICS » group is not in itself an end, because of the poor quality of growth.
