The Congolese government is preparing the priorities and actions of its next National Development Plan for the five years following the expiry of the 2022-2026 plan. The government seminar will also define a vision for Congo towards 2063, Anatole Collinet Makosso said in Brazzaville on 13 November.
The Congolese government is preparing the 2026-2031 National Development Plan, which is to define Congo-Brazzaville’s public priorities and actions for the next five years. Prime Minister Anatole Collinet Makosso presented this direction on 13 November in Brazzaville, at the opening of a government seminar.
The seminar is first intended to assess the 2022-2026 National Development Plan, which has reached its deadline, including its results, progress and the difficulties encountered. The government must then define the Congo it wishes to achieve by 2063 and set the priorities for the new plan, according to Anatole Collinet Makosso.
The 2026-2031 NDP is to constitute the first stage in implementing Congo Vision 2063 and translate the orientations of President Denis Sassou-N’Guesso’s social project into programmes, projects and reforms, the prime minister said. It must notably address economic diversification, difficulties accessing basic social services, youth unemployment, constraints on development financing and infrastructure shortcomings.
Anatole Collinet Makosso called on members of the government to make the new plan an instrument of economic and social transformation, rather than simply a catalogue of sectoral projects, according to Vox Congo.
