CLEAN:Talking up French in the Congo

Of the countries which count French as an official language, the Democratic Republic of Congo is the most populous. But in recent years, the number of speakers in the central African nation has been in steady decline. Now France has embarked on a joint educational project with Congolese authorities to improve French teaching resources, and bring the language back to the masses.
