Ms. Mahoussi Simone Assocle
Dear Sir/Madame, In response to the Call, we are pleased to submit a contribution from the work Participatory Natural Resource Management and Rural Development Project in the North, Centre-North and East Regions (Neer-Tamba Project) designed to run for 8 years (2014-2022), with the development objective of sustainably strengthening the autonomy and capacities of 266,125 direct beneficiaries (50 percent women and 30 percent young people) in 166,328 poor rural households in the North, Centre-North and East regions of Burkina Faso. The project was structured around four components: (i) Small-scale village land development, aimed primarily at improving the resilience of households/family farms to climatic hazards, but also helping to create or strengthen their financial autonomy; (ii) Intensification of small-scale farms and enhancement of their production through the dissemination of best practices and the financing of local initiatives and innovations likely to improve the economic autonomy of target populations in the long term; (iii) Structuring of stakeholders and their networking; and (iv) Project management. Thank you for the opportunity and looking forward to the feedback. Best, regards
