Info

In both Mali and Guinea, the interviewees reported that there are many CBOs in operation.In Mali, 55 per cent of the interviewees in Segou are members of a CBO, and 76 per cent inKolokany. In Guinea, 68 per cent of the respondents said they are member of a CBO. Eighteenper cent of people in Mali and 28 per cent in Guinea have not joined a CBO, seemingly due tolack of interest or lack of information. In both countries respondents were well aware (over 90per cent of the sample) of the conditions required to obtain IFAD project funding forcommunity investments.In Cape Verde, the study suggests that few CBOs have been established, on either a formalor informal basis 49 , groups of poor farmers are rather organized by the CSO of public utilityoperating in their respective island.Despite some shortcomings, the investigations have obtained people’s opinions on theimpact of IFAD projects at community level, and ascertained IFAD CDD projects’ capacity tosupport community members’ ability to get organized, to decide on and undertake activitiesaimed at improving their situation, whilst including a significant participation of women andyoung people in shaping community decisions. The share of people not in agreement with thedifferent project interventions, or with specific community decisions, ranging from 20 to 30per cent of the total sample interviewed, confirms the emergence, after a number of years ofproject operations, of a lively setting in the project areas, that may provide in due course achange in the leadership of the public institutions responsible for the local welfare.Table B-3Participation in decision making in the Community Based Organizations (CBOs) acting forthe exclusive benefit of their membersCountry Mauritania Mali Guinea Conakry Cape VerdePer cent of total sample interviewed(two figures show different results in different sampled areas)Private organizations of local partners (CBO):Are there CBOs in your community? 100 100 96 12Which is the most important CBO activity MICOs several several n.a.funded by the project in your area?Informed of the objectives of the CBOs 57 - 61 n.a.supported by the IFAD project?How many of you are members 75 55 – 76 68 n.a.of a CBO?If not a member, why?- lack of interest, lack of information, 18 28 n.a.no replyDo members’ meetings take no yes yesplace regularly?Aware of the conditions required n.a. 91 90 72-30to join IFAD project funding49 May be due to the expression used by the interviewers (socio-economic organization) which may well have been misunderstoodby the respondents.95
