Project description

The “Programme for the Economic and Social Development of Secondary Towns Exposed to Factors of Instability” I and II (PRODESV) targets towns and cities in Cameroon that are affected by factors of instability in relation to major population displacements, specifically areas hosting refugees, internally displaced persons and other migrants in Cameroon. The specific objective of PRODESV is to strengthen the capacity of secondary towns to cope with crises, to receive new arrivals and to promote inclusive communal socio-economic development while respecting the environment. For the third phase of PRODESV a special audit investigation is launched is to investigate the areas flagged as weak by the previous audits, including any potential impact on the project, and recommend suitable measures to minimize the risks for the upcoming third project phase. The design of PRODESV II follows the same goals and applies the same methods used in PRODESV I. The focus of PRODESV II is also oriented towards an approach that uses a maximum of local capacity (labour-intensive work), both in the construction and operation/maintenance of infrastructure, with direct effects on local employment. It supports eight secondary towns in the West and Littoral regions of Cameroon.
