Le Conseil Stratégique National pour le Développement ''CSND'' (Web Platform : https://csnd-rdc.net) is a non-political, independent, professional institute (a charitable organisation) founded on bold, in-depth thinking and visionary leadership with concerted action. Our mission is to change the paradigm and approach to governance.
The aim here is to restore the image tarnished by these long-criticised scourges; to propose solutions, options and advanced strategies that contribute effectively to the most efficient governance possible, in short: good global governance. The DRC must be a land of unlimited future-oriented opportunities.
Le CSND aims, among other things, to: (i) generate innovative and powerful ideas; (ii) look to the future; (iii) develop carefully considered policies, programmes and systems; and (iv) play the role of a reference institution (a sounding board, a think tank) which informs decision-making on key and/or strategic issues for the development of the Democratic Republic of Congo.
CSND bases its actions on ethical, moral, republican and social values. Moral and intellectual integrity, a culture of meritocracy, hard work and/or love of a job well done, determination and efficiency, accountability (obligation to report, obligation to produce results) and respect for commitments are the main epithets put forward.
We are committed to protecting our resources in order to promote and ensure the prosperity of present and future generations.
To achieve our objectives, we draw up policies, systems, programmes and strategic and/or growth-enhancing projects (with an effect on linear and/or exponential growth), based on a detailed analysis of the issues at hand. We examine the issues in depth and challenge all levels of society to respond, so as to cover the gaps and shape the debate at national, regional and international level, with optimised and tangible dividends and added value.
With "outstanding" experts, we do not hesitate to think "outside the box" to propose new ideas to decision-makers at all levels (political, socio-economic, scientific, etc.), partners and other internal and external experts, with a view to bringing about real qualitative change. Through our reports and other publications, with certain contextual and evolutionary adaptations, we present studies that have been meticulously scrutinised, with a view to providing guidelines for boosting development and good governance.
