The issue of protected area management

Protected areas in the Democratic Republic of Congo comprise 9 national parks and 63 hunting estates and reserves, managed by the Congolese Institute for Nature Conservation (ICCN). They cover 10.47% of the territory.At the end of this in-depth study of protected area management, we would like to express our sincere thanks to Professor LOHAKA DJONGA, Doctor of Science and seminar leader, for the didactic clarity of his presentation, his scientific rigor and his concern for training.During his teaching, he made an enormous and profitable effort, relying on multiple examples to concretize his most fundamental explanations. To develop in his students a spirit of analysis, comparison and initiation to the understanding of lesser things. After having rendered a more thoughtful service, practical work was given to the listeners with the real aim of cementing and concretizing the object of his teaching.
