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.
