Micro Project Promotion through Development Committees

Mali

The company provided technical assistance services to the Ministry of Rural Development to set up and supervise two regional micro project promotion units in Segou and Mopti Regions (130,000 km2). Project staff provided management training, organisational planning services and engineering expertise which were used in the selection and implementation of rural projects presented by local development groups. Additional funding was provided by UN development agencies, Government Departments and local NGO's. A total of 89 projects were implemented which included the provision of potable and irrigation water supplies, water conservation through mini-dams, village based veterinary services including the building of livestock handling yards, fishing nets and outboard engines, feeder road construction, agricultural equipment manufacture and assembly, agro-forestry, school classrooms, rural health clinic buildings, and many others. Logistical and financial control was enhanced by the introduction of a computer based record keeping system.
