Edition 12:
This
has been completed without charge to the budget. All relevant details have been
collected and a first, indicative budget developed. Contacts will be made with
potential suppliers and the basic project technologies selected in accordance
with the project
procurement plan.
The
project coordinator has contacted the local people to discuss their wishes and
willingness and ability to meet any net financial commitments under the project
after taking into account direct savings. Their leaders have signed a cooperation
agreement.(Sample)
Users
have accepted the five conditions precedent to the success of self-financing
development projects of the type here presented:
6.10.1
Acceptation of Health Clubs. These do not only serve the purposes of offering
basic hygiene education courses. They also serve as a platform for women, so
that they can organise themselves and participate and play an important role in
the various structures foreseen. The health clubs therefore constitute a means
of addressing the so-called "gender problem".
6.10.2
Willingness to pay at least (Euro 0,60) being (Euro3 per month per family of 5)
into the project’s Cooperative Local Development Fund. This payment covers the
entire package of basic services foreseen (hygiene education, drinking water
supply, sanitation, waste removal, high efficiency stoves and fuel for them, and
lighting for study purposes.
6.10.3
Acceptance of the use of local exchange trading (LETS) systems, which enable
goods and services originating in the project area to be exchanged without the
need for formal money.
6.10.4
Acceptance of the gypsum composite production processes which enables most of
the items required for local development to be made locally with 100% local
value added within the framework of the local LETS systems in local low cost
labour intensive production units.
6.10.5
Acceptance of quality locally manufactured dry composting toilet systems with
the separation of urine and excreta. Aspects relating to the form, the colour,
the finish, privacy and similar will all be discussed with and decided by the
users. The dry toilet systems foreseen enable waste to be recycled at household
level so that problems connected with the pollution of surface and ground water
can be addressed at local level without the need for major investments.
The
key project sites including clinics and schools will be shown on a map of the
project area.
