Abstract EN

This paper addresses the issue of the relationship between ethnic conflicts and the governance crisis in the great lakes region by focusing on the causes of conflict, the nature of governance, administration and constitutional status in the major countries of the region (democratic republic of Congo, Uganda, Burundi and Rwanda).

the researcher used the descriptive method based on observation secondary data and previous studies related to the case.

the paper concluded that the conflict in one country affects the rest of the region because of the proximity and ethnic overlap between these countries.

in addition, the conflicts in these countries influenced the effectiveness of the government, good governance and peaceful circulation of power and violations of human rights.

moreover, the paper reached the leaders of these four countries that took over the rule of arms and ruled by force so they could not resolve ethnic conflicts and political crises in the region.
