Centre de comptences en reconstruction et réduction de risques (CCR+R)

01.04.2014 - 31.01.2016

Le séisme du 12.01.2010 a touché 3,7 millions de personnes, 230'000 ont été tuées et 1,5 million sont restées sans abri. Parallèlement, les catastrophes liées aux aléas hydrométéorologiques affectent de manière récurrente les populations et les appauvrissent davantage. La faible qualité des constructions, la mauvaise gouvernance, une prévention et une mitigation inefficaces amplifient l’impact de ces phénomènes. Ainsi, la réduction de ces risques de catastrophes est un passage obligé pour l’augmentation de la résilience des communautés.

LEDNA Local Economic Development Network Africa

01.04.2014 - 31.03.2019

Gérant en moyenne moins de 5% des ressources publiques, les élus locaux en Afrique ne sont pas en mesure de satisfaire les besoins de base des populations. Pour fournir des services de qualité et créer des emplois et revenus, le développement économique local doit être la priorité des gouvernements à tous les niveaux. Aussi, LEDNA entend impulser un meilleur partage des ressources, la révision des législations nationales (impôts, mines,…) et la réalisation d’investissements productifs à l’échelle de la CEMAC, de l’UEMOA et de 12 pays.

Community Action for Health in Kyrgyzstan

01.04.2014 - 31.12.2017

The project takes the local people as its starting point: neighbourhood communities are actively involved both in the planning and in the implementation of health-related activities, such as checking blood pressure or discussing healthy lifestyles. In close cooperation with the Ministry of Health, the programme not only improves health in a sustainable way, but it also allows the local community to be actively engaged as a civil society. As the first steps showed very positive results, the project has been scaled up to a national level.

China: Groundwater Rehabilitation under a changing climate

15.03.2014 - 31.07.2018

In the past 30 years the aquifers in the semi-arid North China Plain have been greatly overexploited. Climate change is increasing the drought problem. The project assesses measures to establish a long-term balanced regional water budget by water imports and water saving and applies complementary use of precipitation, surface water and groundwater. The system is based on real-time monitoring of groundwater tables and pumping rates and controlling pumping wells via a quota system. The insights of this project can be applied also in other countries.

Alliances Lesser Caucasus Programme in Georgia

01.03.2014 - 30.06.2017

In the regions of Samtskhe-Javakheti, Kvemo Kartli and Adjara in southern Georgia, many family farms have only small numbers of livestock and operate at a subsistence level that merely enables them to get by. This project aims to help these farmers increase their income, not only by improving their productivity but also by providing them with better access to the meat and milk markets. This involves integrating the different elements of the production chain from farmers to processing companies, wholesalers and service providers such as veterinary surgeons, through to the consumers.
