Professor Felix Kaputu Launches “Réinventer le Congo-Kinshasa,” Proposing Kabila’s Dodekaprogramme for National Reconstruction
Professor Felix Kaputu has released Réinventer le Congo-Kinshasa, a comprehensive study of the Dodekaprogramme, Joseph Kabila’s twelve-pillar strategy for the reconstruction and governance of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The book presents a detailed examination of national renewal centered on sovereignty, stability, and social development.
Through more than 500 pages of analysis, Professor Kaputu outlines a framework that reconsiders Congo’s trajectory by addressing key sectors such as education, security, and justice. The work encourages informed dialogue and offers a foundation for policy discussion on national reform and cohesion.
“This book is not about glorifying the past,” said Professor Felix Kaputu. “It’s about reclaiming a future that belongs to the Congolese people—built on dignity, memory, and shared responsibility.”
Réinventer le Congo-Kinshasa revisits Kabila’s Dodekaprogramme not as a retrospective reflection but as a contemporary proposition for inclusive development. The book integrates perspectives from African political thought, legal studies, and postcolonial analysis to provide an ethical and pragmatic roadmap for progress.
Kaputu’s call for urgent national dialogue is aimed at scholars, policymakers, students, and engaged citizens, all of whom are encouraged to explore the book’s deep insights and contribute to the ongoing conversation about Congo’s future.
