Appui à la formation et à l#emploi qualifié dans le secteur des engins lourds de la République démocratique du Congo This Public-Private Development Partnership (PPDP) project aims at creating decent employment opportunities in the Heavy-Duty Industrial Equipment and Commercial Vehicles (HDIECV) industry in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The project is designed to improve the relevance and quality of TVET in the HDIECV sector and to ensure that experienced and new Congolese professionals and SMEs are equipped with marketable skills that enhance their employability and value integration prospects. The project will contribute to strengthening collaboration mechanisms between TVET and labor market players and to modernizing curricula in cooperation with the private sector. The project will also contribute to establishing (1) Center of Excellence for HDIECV training in secondary education and (2) Center of Excellence for professional HDIECV training.  The project applies the Market Systems Development approach in line wit h the Making Markets Work for the Poor (M4P) operational guide and was developed based on the market analysis and market/labor and training needs assessment conducted under the design phase project (SAP# 190404).

Enabling activities to review and update the national implementation plan for the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants The overall goal of the EA is to fulfill the country#s obligation under Article 7 of the Stockholm Convention which is to review and update the NIP and submit it to the COP within two years the amendments enter into force (August 2012).  The activities of the proposed EA will fill the gaps required to review and update the NIP. This will include: i) strengthening the national coordination mechansim by involving additional stakeholders on new POPs; ii) establishing working groups with expertise on new POPs; iii) updating and reviewing the original 12 POPs; iv) conducting a basic inventory of new POPs; v) assessing the regulatory and policy framework and institutional capacities to manage new POPs, and vi) prioritizing and drafting relevant objectives and action plans for reducing and phasing out new POPs. Relevant stakeholders will be consulted and engaged throughout the project implementation process. The updated, endorsed and submitted NIP will provide a basis for identifying activities to be implement as post-NIP projects, in accordance with the requirements of the Stockholm Convention.  The EA project will focus on the attainment of the following outcomes: - The updated National Implementation Plan (NIP) endorsed and submitted by the Government to the COP; - Participating stakeholders able to manage the addi

Water Network Restructuring And Rehabilitation Jordan - Water Network Restructuring And Rehabilitation project: In 2007, the wastewater collection system in Zarqa Governorate was limited in reach and endangered public health. The system frequently overflowed into city streets and the surrounding environment, relied on pump stations that had insufficient capacity, and did not serve nearly 30 percent of the population. The Wastewater Network Project represented the largest investment in wastewater infrastructure improvements for Zarqa Governorate system. The objectives of the project were to (i) increase access to the wastewater network, (ii) increase the volume of wastewater collected within Zarqa Governorate for treatment and reuse, and (iii) reduce the incidents of sewage overflow.

The Wastewater Network Project was originally comprised of two activities: (i) the reinforcement of existing networks and rehabilitation of existing sewer main lines in West Zarqa, and (ii) the reinforcement of existing networks and rehabilitation of existing sewer main lines in East Zarqa.

The project extended service to households that were not connected to the sewer network by constructing over 300 kilometers of new sewers in the neighborhoods of East Zarqa and West Zarqa, both of which lacked access to the sewer network. The extension of lateral sewer lines raised wastewater service coverage rates from 72 percent to about 84 percent of the local Jordanian population, though coverage rates of the full population dropped due to the influx of Syrian and Iraqi refugees. These new customer connections also generated additional wastewater. The project provided more than 8,700 connection points to the wastewater pipes, which allowed over 54,800 people to be connected to the new wastewater system. These new customer connections generated additional wastewater which is treated at the As-Samra Wastewater Treatment Plant and reused in agriculture downstream in the Jordan Valley. The project also utilized unused budget identified during implementation of the compact to add 65 kilometers of pipes to the Princess Haya neighborhood of the Zarqa Governorate and to purchase high pressure jet cleaning vehicles for the water utility to enhance system maintenance.
