Democratic Republic of Congo Sample Clauses

Democratic Republic of Congo. (DRC) One of the three largest, and one of the two most forested countries in Africa, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has had to endure several decades of poor economic policies, bad governance and wars. It appears that the right policies are now being put in place to pave the way for a restoration of economic growth (Xxxxxxx, B., Xxxxxxxxxxx, M., 2004). The Mountain Gorilla population is restricted to the southern section of the Virunga NP. It is part of the larger “Virunga population”, which includes the gorillas of Volcanoes NP in Rwanda, of the Mgahinga Gorilla NP in Uganda, and of the Mikeno sector of Virunga NP of DRC. In 2001, an estimated 183 Mountain Gorillas were resident in DRC, about half of the Virunga Mountain Gorilla population (Caldecott and Miles, 2005). The range of the distinctive Bwindi population of Mountain Gorillas is largely restricted to the Uganda section of Bwindi Impenetrable NP, which however also includes part of DRC (Xxxxxxxx, X.X., 2001).

Democratic Republic of Congo. SRHR Indicators ❖ Maternal Mortality Ratio:1 693 deaths per 100,000 live births ❖ Modern Contraceptive Prevalence Rate (All Women):2 10.3% ❖ Unmet Need for Modern Contraception (Married Women):2 40.0% ❖ Demand Satisfied for Modern Contraception (Married Women):2 19.9% ❖ Modern Contraceptive Method Users:2 2,171,000 ❖ Total Fertility Rate:3 6.0 births per woman ❖ Adolescent Fertility Rate:3 124.2 births/1000 women aged 15- 19 ❖ Refugees and Asylum Seekers:4 544,509 ❖ Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs):4 3,900,000 Country Context: The current humanitarian crisis in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) is considered one of the worst in the world. As of 2016, 3.9 million people were displaced in the DRC, which makes it the country with the most displaced people in Africa (UN OCHA, 2017). Almost four decades of conflict and war has restricted people’s access to health services, including access to reproductive health care. The country’s infrastructure and social services have been severely damaged by conflict and displacement. Furthermore, the large size of the country, the fact that a majority of the population resides in rural areas, and poor road network and communication systems make it difficult for people to access health care (Engender Health, 2018). Finally, there is great need to focus on SRHR, and young people in the DRC, as 68 percent of the country’s population is under the age of 25 (UNFPA, 2012).

Democratic Republic of Congo. The Western Lowland Gorilla was considered extinct from its former range in the Mayombe (Bas- Fleuve region) in the extreme southwest of DRC, as a result of the combined effects of habitat loss, fragmentation, and poaching. However, recent sightings and observations indicate that a small population of western gorillas subsists in western DRC (Bas-Congo Province) and that those gorillas probably migrate seasonally across the international border shared by DRC, Angola (Cabinda) and Congo Brazzaville. The Mayombe forest, shared between the Congo, Angola and DRC, forms the south-west margin of the margin of the Congo Basin’s tropical rainforest and the geographical limits of several forest- dwelling species, including western gorillas. A trans-frontier initiative for the conservation of the Mayombe Forest focuses on its southern sector, between DRC, Angola, and Republic of Congo. This zone incorporates the Dimoneka and Luki Biosphere Reserves in Republic of Congo and DRC, respectively. In spite of little or no protection efforts in these reserves, coupled with high human populations, illegal exploitation activities and decades of, as yet unresolved, political and economic instability, local reports suggest that significant ape populations, particularly chimpanzees, may remain. Community-based conservation measures have been seeking to build support for a 2,000 km² zone of the Mayombe Forest in Cabinda, Angola. Information on ape status in the Mayombe Forest is scarce, and much-needed survey efforts have been hampered by civil unrest.Ape surveys in this trans- frontier region would also confirm the presence and status of western gorillas in DRC and build political support for trans-boundary conservation efforts in the three countries.
