PERCEPTION OF ANTI-VALUES BY PRIMARY AND SECONDARY SCHOOL TEACHERS IN MUENE-DITU
Abstract
This study examines how schoolteachers in Mwene-Ditu, Democratic Republic of the Congo, perceive the presence of counter-values in their professional environment. Based on a survey of 60 teachers from various educational institutions, the findings highlight a strong awareness of issues such as corruption, cheating, favoritism, and impunity. These behaviors are perceived as consequences of poor working conditions and weak institutional oversight. Teachers' attitudes range from resignation and opposition to adaptation and indifference. The study calls for a renewed ethical commitment within the Congolese education system.
