In the headlines of Fatshimetrie, the Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Planning and Coordination of Development Aid, Guylain Nyembo, unveils the Roadmap for the acceleration of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) during the Council of Ministers on Friday, November 22, 2024. This strategic document aims to boost actions in favor of sustainable development in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
The Roadmap proposes a series of areas of intervention intended to accelerate progress towards achieving the SDGs.

It is estimated that the implementation of the identified actions will require a significant financial investment, with a minimum amount estimated at $77.1 billion over the period 2025-2030. While the government is committed to mobilizing the necessary resources, it nevertheless recognizes that additional financing will be essential to fully achieve the objectives set.

They address major issues such as reducing poverty, combating inequalities, preserving the environment, and promoting peace and justice. The interconnection of the goals underlines the importance of progress on all fronts to ensure inclusive and sustainable development by 2030.
In summary, the SDG Acceleration Roadmap presented by the Congolese government represents a strong ambition to strengthen public action in favor of sustainable development. Its implementation will require a substantial mobilization of resources and effective coordination of the policies and actors involved. The appointment is made to closely monitor the progress and concrete achievements in the implementation of this ambitious roadmap.
