👉 Recent research in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) focuses on addressing critical issues such as conflict, health, and economic development. Researchers are investigating the root causes of ongoing conflicts, particularly those involving armed groups and local militias, aiming to develop strategies for peacebuilding and stability. In health, studies are concentrating on malaria, Ebola, and HIV/AIDS, with a strong emphasis on improving access to healthcare services and vaccination programs in underserved regions. Economically, there is a push to understand and support sustainable development, including the impact of artisanal mining on local communities and the potential for diversifying the economy beyond traditional sectors like minerals. These efforts are often supported by international organizations and NGOs, aiming to create more resilient and equitable societies in the DRC.
