CongoMagis is organising a pre-conference for an in-depth internal discussion of the themes and sub-themes that will structure our upcoming major conference.

This gathering brings together three of our expert members around a single thread: the decisive choices that will shape the future of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Between political legitimacy, the post-mineral transition and collective responsibility, this evening of discussion will allow CongoMagis members to explore together the issues that will shape the Congo of tomorrow.

This pre-conference is reserved for CongoMagis members and takes place entirely online, via Zoom. A major conference open to anyone interested will be announced in the coming days — stay tuned! Members, register opposite to receive the connection link and a reminder before the event.
