Summary
Virunga National Park in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) presents a promising governance model for implementing the European Union's Green Deal, which aims for sustainable global development. The study highlights how effective partnerships and robust governance structures can facilitate green transition cooperation, despite challenges such as rapid demographic growth and economic pressures in Africa. It suggests that Virunga's governance could serve as a reliable framework for other regions, emphasizing the need for long-term vision and political commitment to overcome existing weaknesses in development strategies.
