Training of 65 civil agents in DR Congo

Under the SDGCap Project, the Kinshasa School of Public health (KSPH), together with the Ministry of Planning (through the Congolese Observatory for Sustainable Development – OCDD), and with the support of the UNDP, organized an awareness workshop and training of 65 civil administrators from the 13 Ministries on SDG implementation in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

This national-level activity that took place September 26-27, aimed to increase the critical mass of civil administrators involved in the decision-making process, planning, generation of evidence, new solutions (innovations), and the mobilization of resources according to their sectoral SDGs.

In the DRC, The public administrator is the engine of effective governance, and nothing can function without improving the structure and human resources. Development requires competent agents to be prepared to design and manage effective initiatives for sustainable development. The 16th SDG emphasizes the role of having institutions strong.
