Kurzbeschreibung:

Projektziel


The objective of this project is to contribute to the consolidation or creation of endogenous, inclusive, national and cross-border, perennial and concerted mechanisms of peaceful local development. Recurrent climatic shocks and socio-security crises in the three borders area of Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger should be prevented or well managed.


Erwartete Ergebnisse


The impact of the project: inclusive, locally embedded development and peace mechanisms are in place and strengthened, contributing to peaceful local development, able to cope with climate and security crises. Main results are:

- inclusive, needs-based local development plans are approved, with organisational and institutional capacities of the authorities strengthened;

- land use plans are elaborated and approved, and tenure is secured;

- collective infrastructures are realised, to facilitate the peaceful use of natural resources, e.g. pastures;

- local peace mechanisms are put in place and, where available, strengthened;

- authorities and producer organisations are capacitated in environment-friendly local development;

- producer organisations are trained in post-crisis recovery actions, including livelihood diversification;

- internally displaced people (IDP) as well as host communities are supported in making their livelihoods more resilient.


Zielgruppe


The project will be implemented in the three borders area between Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger. The project is working via implementing organisations which are linked to the local partner Réseau Bilital Moroobe. It will support around 480 producers around collective infrastructures and around 540 IDP households in recovery (a total of 4.800 direct beneficiaries), plus around 1,700 leaders from intermediate target groups: producer organisations, local authorities and peace committees. The project will indirectly benefit the 293,556 inhabitants of the concerned municipalities.

Trainings are an important part of the project: E.g., training project staff on climate change resilience and peace mechanisms will help them train producer organisations and authorities. Further activities include process facilitation, bringing together adverse stakeholders (e.g. farmers and pastoralists) around land use planning. And six collective infrastructures are planned, to ease peaceful use of pasture areas as well as fodder production.

The action will cover the communes of Dori, Markoye, Déou and Falagountou in Burkina Faso; the communes of Tera, Bankilare and Gorouol in Niger; and the communes of Tessit and N'Tillit in Mali. These communes form a continuous, cross-border intervention zone, which will facilitate the implementation of cross-border mechanisms and coordination with local authorities. Other communes will be considered for actions to benefit displaced persons in the direct intervention communes that they host. These are Téra, Dori and Gao.


Maßnahmen


To address the root causes of vulnerability and community conflicts, the action proposes a combination of interventions in favor of the very poor populations in several sectors spread out according to the gradual approach in the short, medium and long term with the objective of reinforcing their livelihoods by strengthening their resilience to food and nutritional insecurity in a sustainable and structural manner. In parallel, the action will support local communities and institutions in conflict prevention with the objective of strengthening social cohesion. This peace process as well as graduation will be coupled with capacity building of local authorities and community leaders for their effective involvement in their communities' issues.

Hintergrundinformation


The project intervenes in a protracted crisis, where land use conflicts intermingle with extremist violence and ever recurring climate shocks and natural disasters (such as floodings). In addition, the area is characterised by high livestock densities and poor hydrogeology, especially in the Burkinabè portion of the intervention area.
