25 January 2008
Kinshasa - The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) will next week sign a US$390 million governance
programme with the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).
The programme will run though 2012 and aims primarily to promote a system of stable and credible governance to
support sustainable human development in the country.
In addition to the resources provided by UNDP and the UK's Department for International Development, which is
providing $90 million, the programme, the European Union and Switzerland are contributing three million Euros and
approximately $1.5 million, respectively.
The governance programme supports the growth and poverty reduction strategy paper of the DRC and consists of
five strategic governance components: political, administrative, economic, local, as well as legal and security
issues. It is accordingly designed to lay the groundwork for the emergence of a strong state capable of boosting
national unity and reconciliation; ensuring the security of its people and their property; increasing citizen access and participation in the political system;
improving the performance of government administration and government agencies; enhancing the accessibility and quality of public services; and
ensuring transparency and accountability in the management of public resources and services.
"This programme is one of UNDP's responses to the challenges generated by a decade of crises and of political economic and social instability in the DRC,"
explained Adama Guindo, Country Director for UNDP DRC.
