Title:
Democratic Republic of Congo - Rural Economy Integrated Development Support Project (PROADER)
Detail:
The present intervention relates to the Rural Economy Integrated Development Support Project (PROADER). It aims to promote a dynamic and prosperous rural economy by improving agricultural and rural socioeconomic services, and by diversifying and enhancing agricultural production. PROADER is consistent with the 2013-2017 Country Strategy Paper (CSP), extended respectively to the end of 2018 and the end of 2020. This document comprises the two pillars which are: (i) development of private investment and regional integration support infrastructure and (ii) building central government’s capacity to increase public revenue and create an enabling framework for private investment. The project will help to strengthen the structural transformation of the rural and agricultural sector, which offers a real opportunity to diversify the country's economy and create jobs. The expected project benefits are the increase in rural household income, the reduction in chronic malnutrition among children under five, the increased share of the agricultural sector in the national Gross Domestic Product (GDP), and the enhanced resilience of rural households. It will be implemented in the rural areas of Kasaï-Central, Kasaï, Kasaï-Oriental, Kwilu, Kwango, Kongo Central and Mai-Ndombe Provinces. PROADER is structured around four (04) main components, namely: (a) local governance and institutional capacity building; (b) promotion of productive and social investments; and (c) project coordination and management.
