Locations
Dem. Rep. Congo
The Democratic Republic of the Congo has stepped up infrastructure investment to strengthen connectivity and stimulate economic development, including road rehabilitation, airport upgrades and improved access to markets supported by external financing from multilateral partners. Infrastructure remains critical given the country’s vast size and low access to electricity and reliable transport; projects such as road corridor development and expansion of trade logistics aim to unlock mineral value chains and agricultural markets. Strengthening institutional frameworks, enhancing public-private partnerships and improving governance are key to translating these investments into inclusive growth and diversification beyond resource exports.
