The Rural Land Management and Community Infrastructure Development Project will help create the conditions needed to raise the standard of living of Cote d Ivoire's rural population. Its specific objectives will be to: (1) facilitate land tenure security on over 2 million hectares of rural land; (2) strengthen local capacity to plan, make decisions, govern and manage affairs at the local level; and (3) support small-scale investments for sustainable natural resources management, sustainable agriculture, and infrastructure development to be undertaken collaboratively by the government and local communities. The project will include four components: (1) Clarifying land tenure surveying, mapping and land tenure clarification so as to certify land rights, facilitate conflict resolution, and help identify land management and development options; (2) Enhancing local management capacity- assisting communities to participatorily develop local development plans (LDP) outlining what is needed to sustainably manage agricultural, pasture, and forest land as well as associated water resources, and to develop and maintain village and inter-village infrastructure, strengthening rural communes, community organizations, and interested groups to facilitate self-governance and local management, and to maintain newly created infrastructure and income-earning assets; (3) Financing local investments- financing to enhance community investment capacity and to implement LDPs; and (4) Supporting decentralization, and coordinating the project and the environmental mitigation plan.
