The impact of the national police reform process in the DRC

As part of our scientific work on the impact of the National Police reform process in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, we asked ourselves a number of questions, one of which was why, despite the various reforms undertaken within the country's police apparatus, the latter is still unable to respond positively to the security needs of the Congolese population. To answer this very important question, it was vital to first examine the various reforms undertaken and what we did. Then, as in any serious scientific approach, it's not enough just to identify the failures, but also to propose a solution. With this in mind, we said that for the reform of the national police force to have a significant impact on the daily lives of the Congolese population, we had to tackle the real problems, including the recruitment, training and equipment of our police officers.
