Fatshimetrie, June 28, 2024 edition – On this remarkable day, a significant step towards gender equality and the promotion of positive masculinity was taken in the Kongo Central province, in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Indeed, the appointment of Ms. Anne Marie Tsasa Mbuzi to the post of chief of staff of the new governor marks a historic step for this region.
