USAID’s Democracy and Governance programs focus on building the capacity of the Government of the DRC to deliver basic services to the Congolese people in line with citizens’ expectations and available resources. These programs also strengthen the capacity of Congolese citizens to engage in governance at the local and provincial levels and participate responsibly in electoral and civic processes.

USAID's Democracy and Governance Program in the Democratic Republic of the Congo aims to:

  • Strengthen democratic political culture and civil society by supporting the means through which citizens can freely organize, advocate, and communicate;
  • Promote government institutions that are democratic, effective, responsive, sustainable, and accountable to citizens;
  • Ensure that elections are competitive and reflect the will of an informed citizenry; and
  • Advance and protect individual rights and promote societies in which the state and its citizens are accountable to laws.
