The decolonization of Congo: Audiovisual teaching materials


In this collection you will find image and sound fragments about the decolonization of Congo, together with more context and concrete teaching tips.

In 1960, the former Belgian colony of Congo became independent. In this collection we explore the road to independence, the role of the Belgians in the secession of Katanga under Tshombe, the assassination of Lumumba, and the series of dictators that would follow: Mobutu, Kabila and Tshisekedi.
