Chapter 4 Existing Conditions of the Communities of the Study Area The Study on Community Development Plan in Cataractes District, Bas-Congo Province in the Democratic Republic of the Congo Final Report Chapter 4 Existing Conditions of the Communities of the Study Area In this Chapter, the results of the Study conducted to understand the existing conditions are presented for the planning of community development plans of the Study Area. Firstly, we studied and listed the potential actors including administrative organizations and other institutions, who were supposed to be responsible or involved in the community development activities. Secondly, the present conditions of the Study Area were understood by putting together the results of exploratory field studies, community profile studies, workshops, etc. And, based on the understanding, the Study Area’s issues and needs were sorted out. Using the information, potentials and constraints of community development in the Study Area were sorted out and an analysis was carried out on the target communities of the Study Area. 4.2 Characteristics of the Target Communities 4.2.1 Population 4.1 Actors Involved in Community 4.2.2 Means of Livelihood Development in the Study Area 4.2.3 Land Use 4.1.1 Ministry of Rural Development 4.2.4 Land Ownership 4.1.2 Directorate of Community 4.2.5 Water Use Development 4.2.6 Markets and Public Facilities (Schools and 4.1.3 Other Related Institutions Medical Facilities) 4.2.7 Existing Villagers’ Organizations 4.3 Study Area’ Issues and Needs (results of analysis of workshops) 4.4 Analysis of Developmental Potentials 4.5 Developmental Constraints Community Road Rehabilitation Improvement in agricultural productivity Improvement in value addition to farm products Diversification of Income Source Improvement of living Environment Improvement of natural environment Improvement of public facilities 4.6 Analysis of Target Communities Figure 4.1 Flow of Analysis of Target Communities 4.1 Actors Involved in Community Development in the Study Area For formulating community development plans, it is necessary to understand the actors who are involved in the community development process in the Study Area. Such actors are shown below. 4.1.1 Ministry of Rural Development In 1977, when the Ministry of Rural Development was established as the competent administrative for community development, its roles were not clarified because of an institutional 4 - 1 The Study on Community Development Plan in Cataractes District, Bas-Congo Province in the Democratic Republic of the Congo Final Report reason, but the ministry’s role was prescribed in 1986. In accordance with the Government Decree put in force on May 16, 2007, the Ministry of Rural Development is now charged with the following responsibilities: (1) Planning and management of development projects in local regions, rural areas and city fringes; (2) Establishment and guidance of associations in rural areas and organizations of farmers; (3) Formulation and supervision of rural development policies and strategies; (4) Organization and guidance to villagers to improve agricultural productivity; (5) Improvement of rural environment and facilities; (6) Coordination and integration of development plans in rural areas; (7) Implementation of enlightenment activities for villagers and guidance to stabilize their livelihood; (8) Promotion and support for inland water fisheries in rural areas; and (9) Improvement, construction, rehabilitation, maintenance and management of basic social and economic infrastructure in rural areas such as community roads, water source facilities, gravity water channels, local drinking water facilities, etc. 4.1.2 Directorate of Community Development The Directorate of Community Development (hereinafter referred to as “DECO”) is a directorate under the supervision of the Ministry of Rural Development and belongs to the Central Management Service of the Rural Development Office.

In addition, DECO, as a Directorate in charge of the provision of enlightenment, guidance, awareness expansion and education to villagers through rural education activities, has the following established goals: (1) To alleviate poverty through programs to develop villagers’ capacity and to contribute to the national development process by encouraging the individual villagers and their organizations to 4 - 2 The Study on Community Development Plan in Cataractes District, Bas-Congo Province in the Democratic Republic of the Congo Final Report make efforts (long-term overall goal); (2) To improve the basic capacity of the communities by promoting villagers’ training, education and leadership as well as to advance activities contributing to the improvement of livelihood through highly productive projects and to support villagers in the establishment of villagers’ organizations in collaboration with related institutions (mid-term strategic goal); and (3) To prepare programs for the development of leaders, education of villagers, enlightenment activities, mental training, new technology introduction, etc. as well as to formulate projects for partners involved in the development process and to evaluate the impact of these projects (short-term practical goal). 4.1.3 Other Related Institutions Except for the Ministry of Rural Development and the DECO, an institution related to the community development in the Study Area is a Directorate under the control of the Ministry of Rural Development and belongs to the Central Management Service of the Rural Development Office called the Directorate of feeder roads (hereinafter referred to as “DVDA”; 17 province-level employees). Other responsible institutions and individuals are the Ministry of Agriculture, Rural Development, Fisheries, Animal Husbandry and Small and Medium Enterprise Promotion of Bas-Congo Province and rural development inspectors, community road maintenance and improvement inspectors, agriculture inspectors assigned to each level of Bas-Congo Province, Cataractes District and Songololo Territoire. Besides, there are lowest-end administrative units called sectors and in the Kimpese Sector in which the Study Area is located, section chiefs for rural development and for agricultural dissemination are assigned under the supervision of the sector chief who was elected. Both of these section chiefs carry out the development-related tasks following instructions of the sector chief and upper administrative organizations. (Based on the hearing from the sector chief, the population of Kimpese Sector is about 50,000.) Table 4.1 shown below indicates the number of officials in charge of rural development and agriculture in Bas-Congo Province and in the Study Area and its neighbourhood. Except for those belonging to administrative bodies, several organizations are in action including an international NGO operating with EU funds, Agrisud, a local NGO called CRAFOD operating with funds from Germany’s Protestant Christian missions and CLERs carrying out road maintenance programs with participation of villages (54 CLER groups in Bas-Congo Province).

  • Schistosomiasis in the Democratic Republic of Congo: a Literature Review
    Madinga et al. Parasites & Vectors (2015) 8:601 DOI 10.1186/s13071-015-1206-6 REVIEW Open Access Schistosomiasis in the Democratic Republic of Congo: a literature review Joule Madinga1,2*, Sylvie Linsuke3, Liliane Mpabanzi2, Lynn Meurs2, Kirezi Kanobana2, Niko Speybroeck1, Pascal Lutumba3,4 and Katja Polman2 Abstract Schistosomiasis is a poverty-related parasitic infection, leading to chronic ill-health. For more than a century, schistosomiasis has been known to be endemic in certain provinces of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). However, a clear overview on the status of the disease within the country is currently lacking, which is seriously hampering control. Here, we review the available information on schistosomiasis in DRC of the past 60 years. Findings and data gaps are discussed in the perspective of upcoming control activities. An electronic literature search via PubMed complemented by manual search of non-peer-reviewed articles was conducted up to January 2015. The search concerned all relevant records related to schistosomiasis in the DRC from January 1955 onwards. A total of 155 records were found, of which 30 met the inclusion criteria. Results were summarized by geographical region, mapped, and compared with those reported sixty years ago. The available data reported schistosomiasis in some areas located in 10 of the 11 provinces of DRC. Three species of Schistosoma were found: S. mansoni, S. haematobium and S. intercalatum. The prevalence of schistosomiasis varied greatly between regions and between villages, with high values of up to 95 % observed in some communities. The overall trend over 60 years points to the spread of schistosomiasis to formerly non-endemic areas.

    GESTURE AND POWER The Religious Cultures of African and African Diaspora People Series editors: Jacob K. Olupona, Harvard University Dianne M. Stewart, Emory University and Terrence L. Johnson, Georgetown University The book series examines the religious, cultural, and political expres- sions of African, African American, and African Caribbean traditions. Through transnational, cross- cultural, and multidisciplinary approaches to the study of religion, the series investigates the epistemic boundaries of continental and diasporic religious practices and thought and explores the diverse and distinct ways African- derived religions inform culture and politics. The series aims to establish a forum for imagining the centrality of Black religions in the formation of the “New World.” GESTURE AND POWER Religion, Nationalism, and Everyday Performance in Congo Yolanda Covington- Ward Duke University Press Durham and London 2016 © 2016 Duke University Press All rights reserved Printed in the United States of America on acid- free paper ♾ Typeset in Minion Pro and Avenir by Graphic Composition, Inc., Bogart, Georgia Library of Congress Cataloging- in-Publication Data Covington-Ward, Yolanda, [date] author.

  • Embodied Histories, Danced Religions, Performed Politics: Kongo Cultural Performance and the Production of History and Authority
    Embodied Histories, Danced Religions, Performed Politics: Kongo Cultural Performance and the Production of History and Authority by Yolanda Denise Covington A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Anthropology) in The University of Michigan 2008 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Elisha P. Renne, Chair Associate Professor Kelly M. Askew Associate Professor Mbala D. Nkanga Assistant Professor Julius S. Scott III © Yolanda Denise Covington 2008 To my grandmother NeNe ii Acknowledgements When I look back on my experiences, it seems as if I was guided by some unseen hand. From my acceptance into the A Better Chance Program for high school, to my career switch from medicine to anthropology/Africana Studies at Brown University, to my trips to Panama, and finally to Congo while at the University of Michigan, I often felt as if my path was being determined by someone else and I was just traveling along it. Along the way, however, I met many wonderful people who have played crucial roles in my journey, and I have to thank them for getting me here. This dissertation is really a collaborative project, for I could not have completed it without the guidance and assistance of so many people. The first person I have to thank is my grandmother, who has inspired and encouraged from my days at C.E.S. 110X in the Bronx. She has always been supportive and continues to push me to reach my highest potential. I could not have reached this point without a great support system and wonderful dissertation committee.
