We present Teaching and Research Activities in Science, and that of Physics in particular, at Universities in Congo and in Central Africa. Although the number of Physics Students is increasing and that the Progress in Physics in a reality today also in some developing countries, problems that could promote this science remain in this geographic area of the world and are listed. Needs and hopes have to be exposed and Solutions are proposed to the international scientific community.
