Examining the Democratic Republic of Congo’s persistent insurgency through a climate, environment, and social justice lens reveals a complex interplay of factors. Environmental degradation, exacerbated by climate change, intensifies competition for dwindling resources, fueling local conflicts and displacement. This instability is further compounded by historical injustices, unequal access to land and resources, and the exploitation of minerals that often finances armed groups. Consequently, the insurgency becomes not merely a struggle for political power, but a manifestation of deep-seated social inequities and environmental vulnerabilities, demanding a holistic approach that addresses both the immediate security concerns and the underlying issues of resource management and equitable development.
