Project General Description
This intervention concerns Grassroots Community Resilience Building Support Project (PARCB). It aims to contribute to community resilience building by improving the employability of young people and women in climate-resilient and low-carbon agricultural value chains in Koulikoro region and Yanfolila Circle. The project will also help to create an entrepreneurial ecosystem and support infrastructure for the Bancoumana-based agro-industrial pole of PDZSTA-KB (Project to Develop the Special Agro-industrial Processing Zone at Koulikoro and peri-urban areas of Bamako) and consolidate the achievements of PRESAN-KL and PRESA-DCI through the implementation of activities that were cancelled by the Bank after project restructuring. PARCB is also complementary with PAURPED (Emergency Support for the Resilience of Displaced Persons) and P2 P2RS MALI (Programme to Build Resilience to Food and Nutrition Insecurity in the Sahel - Phase 2), which are being assessed in terms of their intervention areas and target populations. It comprises three main components, namely: (1) Development of production, processing and marketing infrastructure, (2) Resilience building through entrepreneurship and climate-resilient agricultural value chain development and (3) project management and coordination.
