The Republic of the Congo is pursuing economic diversification through sustainable tourism and infrastructure development. The international NGO Cercle des élites en voyage, tourisme et environnement (CEVTE) has opened a representative office in Pointe-Noire and the Kouilou department to promote ecotourism and protect local ecosystems.

Additionally, the Agence Française de Développement (AFD) is providing financing for infrastructure projects connecting Pointe-Noire and Brazzaville. These projects aim to improve mobility and access to services while adhering to climate commitments and the Paris Agreement through CO2 emission monitoring and environmental compensation measures.
