The economic growth of a country is often judged by different results having a direct impact on the life of the population. It was demonstrated that when the standard of living of the population is raised, his attitude, in the matter of birthrate, stretches to go to a controlled procreation; dragging surely a stability or a diminution of the birthrate and surely of a number of the population. The DRC government has done efforts in this sense, pushing him to declare that the country attains, in the matter of population, the level of countries entering in transitional demographic phase, more precisely entering in the first phase of the demographic transition. Knowing that all countries of the world pass by different steps of this schema, the goal of this work is to determine the real level attained by the Congolese populations confirming or annulling authorities’ declarations in this regard. After analyses by using graphical and numerical methods of comparison, we are arrived to the conclusion according to who, the DRC is still in phase meadow-transitional, then efforts must be supplied for the improvement of this situation.

Abstract
The economic growth of a country is often judged by different results having a direct impact on the life of the population. It was demonstrated that when the standard of living of the population is raised, his attitude, in the matter of birthrate, stretches to go to a controlled procreation; dragging surely a stability or a diminution of the birthrate and surely of a number of the population. The DRC government has done efforts in this sense, pushing him to declare that the country attains, in the matter of population, the level of countries entering in transitional demographic phase, more precisely entering in the first phase of the demographic transition. Knowing that all countries of the world pass by different steps of this schema, the goal of this work is to determine the real level attained by the Congolese populations confirming or annulling authorities’ declarations in this regard. After analyses by using graphical and numerical methods of comparison, we are arrived to the conclusion according to who, the DRC is still in phase meadow-transitional, then efforts must be supplied for the improvement of this situation.

Abstract: (french)
La croissance économique d’un pays est souvent jugée au moyen des différents résultats ayant un impact direct sur la vie de la population. Il a été plusieurs fois démontré que quand le niveau de vie de la population est élevé, l’attitude de population en matière de natalité tend à aller vers une procréation contrôlée entrainant sûrement une stabilité ou une diminution du nombre de la population. Les efforts ainsi fournis conduisent ledit gouvernement à déclarer que le pays atteint, en matière de population, le niveau des pays entrant en phase de transition démographique. Sachant que tous les pays du monde passent par les différentes étapes de ce schéma, ce travail avait pour but de déterminer le niveau atteint par les populations de la RDC en confirmant ou infirmant les déclarations des autorités à ce sujet. Après analyse au moyen de la comparaison des graphiques et des données numériques, nous sommes arrivés à la conclusion selon laquelle, la RDC est encore en phase pré-transitionnelle, donc des efforts doivent être fournis pour l’amélioration de cette situation.
