The Democratic Republic of Congo abounds in natural wealth, talent and intelligence. And yet, millions of young people wander around jobless, condemned to survive in a system that promises but fails to deliver.In this lucid and courageous essay, the author reflects deeply on the paradox of a country where educated youth become victims of an impoverished system.Through hard-hitting analyses, real-life testimonials and concrete proposals, the author questions the responsibilities of government, employers and young people themselves.Why do we demand experience from those just starting out?Why is English becoming a barrier rather than a tool?And how can we restore meaning to all university courses, even those that the market is abandoning?Between denunciation and hope, this book is a cry of truth and a call to action.It invites every young Congolese to rebuild their lives, create their own place and once again become a force for social transformation.Because unemployment is not an identity, but a stage, and the future of the Congo cannot be waited for: it must be built.
