Abstract: Résumé C‟est depuis les accords de Lusaka que la RDC s‟est lancée dans des idées réformatrices de ses forces armées, cependant c‟est en 2011 que les lois sur la réforme des Forces Armées de la République Démocratique du Congo et la Police Nationale Congolaise voit le jour. Plus de cinq années après, une évaluation s‟impose pour en mesurer les performances. Malgré les efforts fournis, pourquoi la RSS n'a pas eu l'impact souhaité sur la sécurité des personnes et des biens dans la Province du Nord-Kivu ? 174 fiches provenant des acteurs du secteur de la sécurité dont 86 évaluent la police et 88 les forces armées, mesurent dix critères, par la gestion axée sur les résultats.

Abstract: Religion serves a variety of functions in societies. Secular items and goals serve equivalent social functions in the form of implicit religion. The role of implicit religion in Native American cultures has yet to be explored. This paper examines Durkheim‟s views on religion and Bailey‟s views concerning implicit religion as they relate to the Native American contest powwow. We employ Sage, Eitzen, and Beal‟s eleven shared characteristics of religion and sport to determine existing connections between religion and the contest powwow. The purpose of this study is to determine if the intertribal contest powwow can be classified as an implicit religion. In this qualitative research, we....

Abstract: In 2019, the novel Corona Virus (COVID-19) emerged from Wuhan China. Being a pandemic, it succeeded in locking down economies of the world. Borders, schools, and religious organisations were closed, businesses were shut down and people were forced to stay at home and work from home. This dealt a big financial blow to the economies of the world. The Libraries were not left out as they were also shut to the public and Librarians made to work from home. The death toll skyrocketed as scientists and big pharmaceuticals struggle to find a vaccine to cure the disease. The question now is how to live with the Corona Virus, because staying indoors and shutting down the economy is not sustainable and would lead to the economic ruin of nations. As countries are slowly lifting the lockdown, regular washing.....
