Livelihood support programme to farmers of outlying districts in Kinshasa Water is the lifeblood for farmer living around Malebo pool which is a very large wetland in Kinshasa, not just for agricultural but also for a large type of livelihoods. Decades of socio political instability have destroyed much of farming irrigation and other water supply systems, which are vital for the substantial agriculture. As the largest area of Malebo pool, Tchangu area is very fertile, were almost 2,500 households practices substantial agriculture in an estimated area of more than 500 ha whose food security and livelihoods are at risk following a sharp fall in crop production due to drought. Since 2014 and thanks to financial support from CAFOD, MAMBELI NGO has intervened through projects different project to defend this site by rehabilitating the dam over a length of 200 m. Unfortunately in front of the extent of the perimeter this intervention did not live up to defend and protect this site which is subject to the calamities of floods happen this season and reducing considerably the production area of the site. 

The sharp decline in production will have a negative impact on farmers' income and access to food. Some 10,000 farmers need urgent assistance by restoring the dyke along Tchangu River, were many of the most vulnerable households having lost all or a large part of their cereal crops in that most affected area of Pool Malebo. Furthermore, the present degrading state of the site will not be able to allow the efficient exploitation by the peasant farmers during the great agricultural season which begins in December-January; which justifies the urgent need for an emergency project of agricultural irrigation schemes. These developments will be organized under a framework of a global scheme to restore the agricultural perimeter of Tshangu in line with actions already undertaken by MAMBELI to fight against floods in the area. This is a program to expand the bed of the Tshangu River, by planting protective dike and strengthening existing dikes.

Making agriculture production less dependent on highly variable and unpredictable rainfalls is particularly crucial in an effort to build resilience in Tchangu area. After the construction of the dike the cultivable area will be restored, so this project will help to reach good results for the benefit of the communities.
Simama project: Protection and Community Recovery of Conflict-Affected Populations in South Kivu The overall goal is to contribute to the recovery of human dignity by reviving the self-help activities of 300 armed conflict survivors in the Bukavu Archdiocese, South Kivu, Democratic Republic of Congo. This is through the sensitization of 5,000 prople of the Kalehe, Walungu and Kabare territories, including IDPs, survivors and their families to prevent and minimize the consequences / effects of violence on vulnerable populations by March 2019.
This project also aims to bring victim’s communities to be aware of their vulnerability, identify their strengths and set up protection strategies.
Everything contributes to improving the life quality of 300 survivors of sexual violence, including 200 women and 100 men, as Bukavu Justice and Peace Commission (CDJP) has been working with CAFOD since 2008, as one of the only organisations in the area to bring about change and provide support to the vulnerable. Working across 34 parishes, CDJP’s aims are focused on justice and peace in a diocese that has been torn apart by war for decades. Our partner works to educate, train and advocate on issues related to elections, civic rights, peace and democratic values. 
CDJP has 18 counselling offices or Listening Centres, working with specialist psychosocial assistants who are trained and experienced in counselling survivors of violence. To ensure that holistic and effective support is provided, CDJP collaborates with local organisations that have the capacity to provide safe medical facilities for the care of victims of sexual violence. Our partner has extensive experience of working on governance, accountability and peace-building issues and works with legal authorities at all levels, including lawyers in parishes and formal lawyers for the judicial monitoring of cases. 
In recognition of CDJP’s tremendous work, the organisation has been awarded two international prizes – the International Award for Peace and Reconciliation, Coventry and the Shalom Prize.

Civic education for electoral enlistment and sensitization The Democratic Republic of the Congo, our country, is composed of approximately 70% of young populations. Majority of this category of young people were excluded from the electoral process despite the fact that they had reached the voting age (above 18 years) and this since 2011. According to the Statistics, this category of young people ranges between 5 and 10 million young people.
This important category of young men and women does not benefit any attention from the institutions of the Republic especially regarding the information access and any sort of civic education and electoral training.
The youth are not taken into account in the current process of electoral file review. CAFOD, in its previous project has done a tremendous job of educating the population on their right and duties and this has set the basis that  facilitated the advocacy efforts which have led to the agreement of the Government to review the electoral file and integrate the youth in the new electoral process.
This is the reason why CENI has decided to revisit the electoral file and give the opportunity for a new enlistment so as to refreshes the electoral file, a process that will soon begin.
In the DRC young women and men are still vulnerable, especially in a post conflict context with no employment. They can easily be manipulated and used for ills ends especially by the political class and this for their own interest.
This state of things, predisposes the young to ignore even major problems. We strongly believe that if the young people who constitute the vast majority of the population stand as a force of the nation and their participation and involvement in the political process is not negotiable.
That is why CDJP Bunia has chosen a more proactive approach in regard to young people in general, but especially on the category of new major who are in need of civic education information and training and to be sensitized on the enrolment and the electoral process. The youth has got a great role to be played and it is imperative that young men and women are associated in affairs of national development starting from the electing their representatives in various political process. They can only do so if they hold valid cards that identify them as citizen of the nation. In this position they can be used as force to bring about positive change, and this only starts by civic education and sensitization.
Strengthening the Ecclesial Network on the Congo Basin In 2015, Pope Francis published the encyclical "Laudato si '" on the protection of the common house, the planet earth. In this document the Pope wants certain places on earth to be protected because of the ecosystems of great importance, which constitute a special reserve and protect other forms of life. The pope clearly mentions that the two lungs of the planet which are the Amazon and the Congo River Basin contribute to the balance of the environment. It is in this perspective that two networks of the Church are set up. It is the Ecclesial Pan Amazon Network (REPAM) and the Ecclesial Network on the Congo Basin (REBAC). 
This project will be carried out with all Episcopal Conferences members of the Congo Basin that makes up the REBACs. These are the Episcopal Conferences of the Democratic Republic of Congo, the Republic of Congo, the Episcopal Conference of Cameroon, the Episcopal Conference of the Central African Republic, the Episcopal Conference of Gabon, the Episcopal Conference of Equatorial Guinea. 
The project will consist of organizing a workshop of the REBAC Secretariat. Participants at this meeting will come from 6 member countries. This workshop will help lay the groundwork for strengthening climate change adaptation and mitigation actions. It will be a question of collecting information on the actions carried out by each member Bishops' Conference and exchanges of experience on techniques used in climate change adaptation and mitigation within the Bishops' Conferences.  Each Bishops' Conference will provide information on the visible effects of climate change observed since the last meeting held in Brazzaville, inform on key stakeholders, and report on how the Bishops' Conferences have mobilized resources for these actions.
Promoting Participatory Governance and Human Rights in DRC Africa’s destiny will be shaped by how much Africa constructs a sense of belief in democracy, governance and unity as the most viable policy option to mediate, reconcile and accommodate the individual and collective interests. The current situation in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) is highlighted by the change of the Article 220 of the constitution aimed to allow the current president to go for a third term. This is a substantially challenged by the Catholic church, the foreign diplomats and even members of his own ruling coalition especially now at the wake of the Blaise Compaoré's precipitous fall from power in Burkina Faso, the lid has been put on this campaign of constitution change. Now the president and his ruling party have changed the strategy and might chose to sidestep controversy and simply delay the holding of presidential elections by introducing a national census that may go until 2020. 
The current DRC political situation is volatile as the general population has become more upset of the economic situation. Moreover, many are not well educated on the issues related to constitutional change as well as resource allocation and management. The general population also has limited analytical capacities to read behind the current political intentions. The Catholic Church has been doing it best to educate the population by producing leaflets in various local languages. However, this has not been sufficient due to the size of the country and the changing political situation.  Ahead of the local and presidential election, this project aims to support Church structures at national and international level to carry out advocacy initiatives on issues related to Constitutional review; to support local organizations to monitor the public spending based on voted budget, and to strengthen the security of church leaders and local organizations engaged in human rights activities. 
The project will be run for six months, and will be implemented by the CEJP in partnership with RENADHOC and CADICEC. The expected results are: - The bishops Episcopal Conferences of DRC and the ACEAC in the region (Congo Brazzaville) will advocate at the regional level against the risks of change of constitution and the benefits of alternation of power; - The Civil Society Organizations will improve their skills to engage in public budget monitoring; - The churches and CSOs leaders will be engaged in the promotion of fundamental human rights and human right defenders will improve their security management skills.
Strenghthening the Catholic's church role in the electoral process in the DRC This project aims to enable the Catholic Church to play a significant role in the electoral process and to contribute to the organisation of fair and democratic elections in the DRC. It has done or will do this through:

1) financially supporting the participation of several women’s organisations at the church’s strategy and planning meeting held in Kinshasa in June 2014. 

2) financially supporting the organisation by CEJP of a meeting gathering several key actors and experts, to prepare the official declaration of the bishops on elections. This enabled the bishops to come out with a strong, informed and powerful declaration which set the tone for the Catholic Church’s position on the upcoming elections.

3) working with an expert to outline and clarify the Catholic Church’s strategy and civic education programme over the next two years, based on lessons learned by the Church from previous election years as well as the evaluations of previous elections and civic education programmes.

4) the translation into English of the Church’s strategy and civic education programme, enabling CEJP to approach English partners and donors with their strategy and programme. 

5) the publication and distribution of up to 1,000 brochures explaining two articles of the constitution (articles 220 and 197) related to elections, in 4 local languages.
Project to support farmers of Kimwenza in Kinshasa Through this project, Sowers of Hope Congo, aim to support farmers by contributing to improving the living standards of vegetable growers in West Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo.

A baseline study conducted in May 2015 revealed that small-holding farmers in Kimwenza do not have access to good quality seeds and do not use the standards required in cultivation techniques. As a result very little production is observed. Furthermore, they do not analyse the market to sell at the right price.

Sowers of Hope Congo have therefore taken the initiative to support 60 farmers by:
- providing agro ecological techniques for preservation of soil fertility
- improving the irrigation techniques (irrigation system)
- providing seeds of good quality and sufficient quantity
- training farmers in making organic fertilizer
- organising farmers into associations and training them on market study
Humanitarian Capacity Strengthening Project for BDD Kasongo (April 16 - March 18) The BDD Kasongo has been implementing emergencies since 2009 and has extended their activities across the large diocese of Kasongo with staff in Kasongo, Kalima, Shabunda (South Kivu) areas and a liaison office in Bukavu, South Kivu province. Caritas Kasongo was known among humanitarian actors in the east DRC through the BDD-Kasongo having been interacting with clusters in Bukavu on the behalf of isolated and hard to reach community of Shabunda territory in South Kivu which is part of the Kasongo diocese. 

They made enough progress and were able to attract more humanitarians to work in the area. It is good to mention that for 2 times they have implemented Echo funded projects in partnership with Christian Aid in a recent past. Good to note that they are currently implementing an Echo funded project and the diocese has recently accessed START fund to assist victims of heavy rains in the region last September 2016 which demonstrates their perseverance in growing as humanitarian actor among local NGOs.  Their integration process is ongoing meaning that all structures are merging and will be under a Coordinator.  

Earlier 2016, they applied to the CAFOD Humanitarian Capacity Development programme (HCD) to benefit from that particular opportunity. In September 2016, the HCDO met the Bishop of the Kasongo diocese during his visit in Bukavu to explain the HCD programme, approach, achievements to date, and seek commitment to the programme as it is a mandatory step.  Given the integration process, the Bishop recommended that the capacity strengthening process take in account this new way of working.

As a result of that meeting, the HCD facilitated the self-assessment workshop end of October 2016.  Main concerns raised in terms of weakness to work on are as following:
1.	Develop a logistic plan. 
2.	No security plan has been developed yet. 
3.	Unclear fundraising policy.
4.	Humanitarian programming is not taking in account Core Humanitarian Standard (CHS) of quality and accountability.
5.	Managing structures which exist need to align to CHS and related engagements.  
6.	No communication policy. 
7.	No preparedness and response plan for emergencies.
8.	Lack of adequate Monitoring, Evaluation and learning system. 

Discussions with Caritas Spain were held previously and there is a chance that they may be interested in co-funding or at least, providing kind of support to the capacity strengthening plan which will be shared.
Support to security improvement of Caritas Goma’s staffs and it’s implementing partners in the Goma This project aims to increase the safety of Caritas staff, in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Eastern DRC is continuously facing a high level of armed conflicts which violate humanitarian rights, including gender-based violence, family separation, forced displacements, looting and destruction of private property, killings, kidnapping etc. 

Humanitarians are called on to respond to assist suffering people. However, their staff members need to be well informed on security issues and be able to take the necessary measures required in a professional and timely manner to protect themselves, as well as avoiding putting any beneficiaries in danger whilst assisting them. 

This security reinforcement project aims to prevent cases of kidnapping, killings, looting and sabotage aimed at Caritas staff, its implementing partners, staff and their families, and donors. Allowing them to work peacefully and quietly. 

The project is a continuation of some preview security training funded by Caritas Australia organised by experts from Kenya.  Many subjects were discussed, a security manual was set up and recommendations were formulated.

In order to reinforce the benefits of the training gained from Caritas Australia, CAFOD has agreed to support Caritas Goma to achieve some of important recommendations highlighted above in order to reduce risks related to mismanagement of security info and the non-observance of security principles.
