Abstract

DRC is one of 189 States of the United Nations which signed the declaration of the Millennium which gathers 8 Millennium Development Goals (MDG). Year 2015 being that of the forfeiture of this program of development, the objective of this paper consisted in evaluating made progress, by the DRC, in the implementation of the MDG. While taking as a starting point the the method of notation retained by the ASC in 2012, we noted that on the 13 indicators used, only three indicators were reached with more than 85% and out of 7 analyzed objectives, only two were achieved with more than 85%: the DRC is thus a not very powerful country in the implementation of the MDG. To keep a coherent programming framework, to promote the good governance and to undertake structural reforms can facilitate the implementation of the SDG in DRC.
