It presents findings, interpretations, and conclusions on climate-related impacts, compounding development and climate risks, and how these affect vulnerable populations. The report reviews DRC’s climate commitments, policies, and institutions, then outlines pathways for resilience building and low‑carbon development across key sectors such as agriculture, transport, urban systems, water, clean cooking, and digital infrastructure.","Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized  \nEASTERN AND  \nSOUTHERN AFRICA  \nDEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC  \nOF CONGO (DRC)  \nWorld Bank Group  \nCOUNTRY CLIMATE AND DEVELOPMENT REPORT  \n© 2023 The World Bank Group  \n1818 H Street NW, Washington, DC 20433 Telephone: 202-473-1000; [Internet: www.worldbank.org](Internet: www.worldbank.org)  \nThis work is a product of the staff of the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD), the International Development Association (IDA), the International Finance Corporation (IFC), and the Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA), collectively known as The World Bank, with external contributors.  \nThe World Bank does not guarantee the accuracy, reliability or completeness of the content included in this work, or the conclusions or judgments described herein, and accepts no responsibility or liability for any omissions or errors (including, without limitation, typographical errors and technical errors) in the content whatsoever or for reliance thereon.
