PROG 2017-2021_Programme de Coopération internationale communale 2017-2021 Depuis 2001, le Programme de Coopération internationale communale (CIC) est un instrument de la Coopération belge au développement, conçu et mis en œuvre par l’Union des Villes et Communes de Wallonie (UVCW) et Brulocalis. Ce programme commun s’inscrit en cohérence : - avec la loi belge sur la coopération internationale du 19 mars 2013 ; - avec les orientations politiques et stratégiques de la Coopération belge, au niveau sectoriel, thématique et géographique. Doté d’un budget prévisionnel de 13.500.000 € pour la période 2017-2021, ce Programme envisage la lutte contre la pauvreté doit s'envisager sous l'angle spécifique du renforcement de l'institution communale du Sud. Une des composantes du phénomène complexe que représente la pauvreté est en effet un accès inadéquat de la population à la citoyenneté, et donc aussi à la plupart des biens et services publics, et plus particulièrement de proximité. Ainsi, la spécificité du Programme de CIC est de contribuer, au travers de partenariats de commune à commune, au renforcement des capacités des institutions locales africaines à prendre en charge leur propre développement. Ce renforcement du niveau local repose sur trois piliers indissociables : - 1er pilier : une bonne gouvernance politique, - 2ème pilier : une administration efficace, - 3ème pilier : une participation des citoyens dans le processus décisionnel. Le Programme de CIC veut ainsi relever le défi spécifique que représente la bonne gouvernance au niveau local, reconnue comme vecteur de développement. Il intervient dans les pays suivants: Bénin, Burkina Faso, Maroc, République démocratique du Congo, Sénégal.
Gestion administrative locale en appui aux politiques financières L'UVCW collabore avec Brulocalis dans la mise en oeuvre du Programme Bénin. Pour renforcer les capacités des autorités décentralisées et de leurs Services, le Programme fédéral de CIC 2017-2021 au Bénin vise à ce qu’à un horizon de 5 ans, les communes béninoises y participant aient dynamisé et sécurisé leurs structures et capacités organisationnelles pour la maîtrise de leurs ressources financières et une amélioration des capacités de gestion de leur territoire et des services de base aux citoyens.
Renforcement des capacités des communes en matière d'état civil et de population L'UVCW collabore avec Brulocalis dans la mise en oeuvre du Programme RDC.

Renforcement des capacités des communes en matière d'état civil L'UVCW collabore avec Brulocalis dans la mise en oeuvre du Programme Burkina Faso. Pour favoriser l’accès de la population à la citoyenneté et aux biens et services publics, le Programme de CIC 2017-2021 au Burkina Faso vise à ce qu’à un horizon de 5 ans, les communes burkinabè y participant soient capables: - d'enregistrer l'ensemble des faits d'état civil (y compris informatiquement); - d'encourager la déclaration de ces derniers; - d'organiser à long terme la conservation des actes y afférents; - de transférer les données extraites des actes aux pouvoirs publics.
