The objectives of the Rural Community-Driven Development (RCDD) Project is to increase access to priority basic social and economic infrastructures and services in participating communities in at least two regions (Cacheu and Biombo) of Guinea-Bissau. The project will include three components: a) capacity-building for local development aimed at supporting capacity development of institutions at regional, administrative sector and community level, to plan and carry out investments in a participatory and transparent manner; b) local investment fund aimed at improving basic social and economic infrastructures and services through the financing of micro-projects included as part of the beneficiary community's participatory local development plan; and c) project coordination and monitoring and evaluation, which will be responsible for all operational and fiduciary management of the project, and for monitoring and evaluation of project activities. The project will intervene in at least two regions out of eight, Cacheu and Biombo. It is estimated that 85 percent of the communities will benefit from the project, receiving up to US$30,000 in support of micro-projects identified and prioritized in their participatory local development plan.
