About BEPARECOZA

Empowering Congo-Zaire through Moral Civic Responsibility, Principled Leadership, and National Sovereignty

Our Mission

At BEPARECOZA, (Patriots Bureau  of Studies to Reform Congo-Zaire) we are dedicated to the political and economic empowerment of the people of Congo-Zaire through research, advocacy, and strategic action. Our mission is to challenge the exploitative dynamics that have undermined Congo-Zaire’s sovereignty for centuries, promote nationhood, moral/civic responsibility, through national reform. By fostering partnerships with local and global stakeholders, we strive to end the exploitation of Congo-Zaire’s resources and ensure that the wealth of our nation benefits the indigenous Bantu people. We advocate for sustainable development, land reform, and the nationalization of key industries to build a future where the people of Congo-Zaire are free from foreign domination and fully in control of their resources as well as their economic and political destiny.

The BEPARECOZA team is responsible for the planning, execution, and distribution of content, management of marketing initiatives, and coordination of fundraising efforts. Additionally, our team oversees all executive, operational, and logistical tasks necessary to keep our extended community informed, engaged, and active in support of our mission.

Governing Principles

1. Human Dignity and Equality

In the West, the biblical concept of human dignity, rooted in the belief that man is made in the image of God, laid the foundation for recognizing the inherent value of each person. This principle contributed to the development of human rights and democratic ideals in Western societies.

We affirm the inherent dignity of all people, particularly indigenous peoples whose rights and voices have been historically trampled by colonial powers.

2. Servant King Leadership 

The Servant King metaphor serves as a cornerstone for ethical leadership and governance, emphasizing humility, service, and accountability alongside authority and strength. Rooted in biblical teachings, it challenges traditional power dynamics by emphasizing that true leadership, “He that is the greatest among you” will be in service to others. The paradox of a servant embodying kingship is vividly illustrated through Christ’s actions such as washing His disciples’ feet (John 13:1-17) and described in Philippians 2:6-8, this approach inspires governance that values service over dominance and self-interest a model grounded in humility and moral responsibility.

This metaphor’s application extends beyond theology, informing leadership practices that value transparency, prioritize collective good, and reject personal or external self-interest. Celebrated in hymns, literature, and governance ideals, the Servant King framework continues to inspire leaders to balance strength with service, fostering trust, integrity, and a governance system that genuinely serves its people.

3. Compassion and Moral Responsibility

The Bible’s emphasis on compassion, as exemplified in the parables of Christ and teachings of the prophets, encouraged the West to develop social welfare systems and humanitarian values, leading to institutions that care for the vulnerable.

Inspired by these teachings, we are committed to cultivating a compassionate society where the needs of all citizens, particularly indigenous peoples and the impoverished, are met with empathy and care. We work to build a Congo-Zaire that ensures moral responsibility and mutual support.

4. Education for Empowerment

The Bible played a transformative role in Western education, inspiring the founding of universities and advancing literacy to help individuals access the sacred text. This contributed to the rise of modern education systems and the idea that knowledge empowers individuals.

Education is key to Congo-Zaire’s reform. We believe in creating an equitable and accessible education system that empowers all citizens, especially the indigenous Bantu peoples, to gain the knowledge and skills necessary to lead the nation toward sovereignty and prosperity.

5. Empowerment of Women

In Western society, biblical teachings on the inherent worth of individuals also provided a basis for the gradual advancement of women’s rights. Women began to find social and economic empowerment as Western society embraced these values.

Just as the Bible contributed to empowering women in the West, we are committed to empowering women by equipping them with the critical analytical skills necessary to navigate their current realities.  We seek to create opportunities for women to fully participate in political, social, and economic life, ensuring their rights are protected and their contributions recognized.

6. Rationality Innovation and National Development

Western success in science, technology, military strength, and economic progress is deeply rooted in its transformation into a thinking civilization, as articulated by Vishal Mangalwadi in his book, The Book That Made Your World. The Bible, particularly through its concept of logos; the rational principle governing all things, provided the philosophical foundation for this intellectual revolution. Ernst Benz’s essay, Fondamenti Christiani della Tecnica Occidentale (1964), underscores how biblical teachings informed the West on how to understand and improve the world through technological and scientific innovation.

Inspired by this historical precedent, we aim to cultivate the same rational and innovative mindset in Congo-Zaire. By prioritizing research, technological progress, and sustainable development, we seek to harness the nation’s resources through nationalization and industrialization. This approach envisions a self-reliant, prosperous society where rational thought and innovation drive economic growth and societal advancement.

7. Strong Families as the Foundation of Society

The Bible’s emphasis on family, as seen in its many narratives and laws, shaped the West’s belief that strong families are the bedrock of a stable society. These values influenced the creation of policies that supported family stability and growth.

Recognizing the central role of families in societal stability, we advocate for policies that strengthen and support families in Congo-Zaire. We believe that stable, empowered families are crucial to national development and the well-being of future generations.

8. Justice, Freedom, and the Rule of Law

The Bible has been foundational in shaping modern concepts of liberty, justice, and governance. The European Reformation of the 16th century marked a rediscovery of biblical teachings, leading to a biblical understanding of governance and principles that sustain constitutional republics. Biblical texts from Genesis to Chronicles inspired ideas of justice and freedom, which influenced the cultural and legal frameworks of the West. The covenantal laws given to Moses, enshrined in the Ark of the Covenant and placed at the heart of the nation, symbolized the enduring truth that true freedom is sustainable only under the rule of God, the rule of law, and representative governance. These principles became the cornerstone of Western legal systems, emphasizing equal protection under the law for all citizens.

Similarly, we advocate for the establishment of a justice system in Congo-Zaire that upholds the rule of law and ensures equal legal protections for all citizens. By reforming the nation’s justice system, we aim to promote freedom, prevent abuses of power, and lay the foundation for a society rooted in justice and equity.

9. Courage and Heroism in Service to the Nation

The biblical archetype of heroism, embodied in figures like David and Christ, shaped Western concepts of the hero; individuals who sacrifice for the greater good and uphold moral values. These stories have influenced Western ideals of leadership and bravery.

We draw on this legacy of heroism, encouraging leaders and citizens alike to act with courage and resilience in the service of Congo-Zaire. We believe that true heroism lies in the selfless pursuit of justice, sovereignty, and the welfare of the nation.

10. Prosperity through Stewardship

The Bible’s teachings on stewardship; responsibly managing resources for the good of all, shaped Western economic practices, promoting prosperity that is tied to rational principles and moral responsibility.

We believe that Congo-Zaire’s vast resources must be managed morally and sustainably. Our commitment is to ensure that these resources benefit the people of Congo-Zaire, fostering prosperity through nationalization, sustainable development, and equitable distribution of wealth.

Our Vision
We envision a Congo-Zaire that is politically independent, economically self-sustaining, and socially just. A nation where the Bantu people benefit directly from the country’s resources, land is equitably distributed, and everyone has access to quality education, healthcare, and opportunity to thrive. At BEPARECOZA, we are committed to transforming Congo-Zaire into a nation where sovereignty, justice, and prosperity are within reach for all.
