2017 Q3 Report CONTENTS 1. Results & Overall Progress 2. Sectors 3. Regions 4. Cross-Cutting Sectors, Operations & Management 5. Business Development Services 6. Markets in Crisis 7. Women’s Economic Empowerment INTRODUCTION The third quarter was another busy one at ELAN RDC, as the programme balanced a mid-term evaluation and data verification process in addition to ongoing implementation. A number of new consultants contributed to increased activity for the technical team during the quarter, resulting in concrete workstreams on business development services (BDS), the launch of scoping to replicate existing interventions in conflict-affected Kasai Central, and a renewed focus on gender through increased support from our senior gender adviser. A number of large partnerships were finalised thanks to agreement with DFID on an improved non-objection review process, however, several large partnerships remained delayed due to multiple factors including increasing unstable market conditions. Partnerships in the energy and agriculture sectors were finalised during the quarter, while several partnerships in the financial sector faced delays. The programme has initiated a drive to increase and improve communications of programme results, resulting in an increase in visibility across various media. The launch of the Congo Coffee Atlas, completion of research for The Africa Seed Access Index (TASAI), meeting with mobile network operators to establish a lobbying platform and the finalisation of the contract for a renewable energy marketing campaign are all examples of activities through which ELAN RDC has made more market information available to the broader private sector. More details about third quarter results are found in the following slides. RESULTS & OVERALL PROGRESS SUMMARY HIGHLIGHTS During the third quarter, ELAN RDC added 15 new interventions covering 15 new partners as the programme made progress towards scaling up in each of its 6 core sectors and 4 regions. Technical Achievements: ✓ ELAN-RDC launched the first Congo Coffee Atlas, providing the industry with map-based information about coffee producers and the quality, quantity and profile of coffee they bring to market ✓ A partnership was finalised with the East Africa Exchange (EAX), representing new access to markets for Congolese producers / traders ✓ Solar lamp distributors D.Light and Altech increased sales while partnerships were signed with several new partners. ✓ In branchless banking, ELAN RDC partnered with GSMA to host a workshop on digital finance, discussing regulatory issues with the Central Bank and plans for an industry association with the private sector ✓ Finalised the preparation of a market information system in the river transport sector. Other Achievements: ✓ A BDS strategy was developed focusing on six core intervention areas ✓ A transition plan was put in place to manage MRM effectively following the departure of the MRM Manager ✓ The first data verification process was completed with the Decision Support Unit KEY INDICATORS UPDATE With results from 75% of ELAN RDC’s interventions available through quarter three, the programme has reached 59% of its cumulative target for impact level outreach. Market conditions have adversely affected impact. The results of additional evaluations and the inclusion of impact for several interventions previously only producing business practice change [but not income change] should allow the programme to reach within 10% of its goal. 2017 2017 2017 2018 2019 2020 INDICATOR Achieved Program- Cumul. % of Target Target Target Q3 to-date Target Target IMPACT 2: Cumulative number of poor Total 72,279 222,073 373,469 59% 608,844 748,931 1,001,118 OUTREACH people who have Productive 65,741 161,888 130,714 124% 273,980 374,466 500,559 experienced net positive activities income change Indirect - - 80,345 n/a 238,046 378,133 630,320 Women 21,678 72,934 82,163 89% 152,211 187,233 250,280 OUTCOME 1: Cumulative number of poor Total 95,217 315,254 560,204 56% 913,266 1,123,397 1,501,677 PERFORMANCE people who report a Women 26,977 104,190 140,051 74% 228,317 280,849 375,419 substantial increase in enterprise or household performance OUTPUT Cumulative number of poor Total 230,131 546,606 746,938 73% 1,217,688 1,497,862 2,002,236 INDICATOR 2.1 people showing significant Women 59,696 169,494 186,735 91% 304,422 374,466 500,559 changes in their practices SELECT RESULTS – CHANGE IN BUSINESS PRACTICES Significant progress has been made toward the logframe objectives despite the challenging business environment linked to both the political and economic stresses facing the country. While there remains a gap to be closed to hit 2017 targets, these targets remain within reach due to several large interventions that were finalised in 2017 but will only produce results towards the end of the year or in 2018. Over the past nine months, an additional 230,131 new low income beneficiaries have demonstrated improved business practices of which 59,636 are poor women In Q4, measurements for HNI, 81% are poor producers vs. 19 % consumers.

QUARTER FOUR PRIORITIES The fourth quarter of 2017 will focus on finalising partnerships in existing sectors while confirming priority interventions for a growing BDS portfolio. The programme will explore coordination with the humanitarian sector in several areas including WASH and crisis response in the Kasai Central region. A renewed focus on communications will raise awareness of ELAN RDC successes, while Congolese entrepreneurs will be supported through the Seedstars pitch competition. Intervention Development: - Perennial Agriculture: Launch the women in coffee network in Goma and promote the Congo Coffee Atlas, while planning the 2018 coffee and cocoa marketing strategy including the 2018 Saveur du Kivu - Non-perennial Agriculture: Conduct workshops in three regions to present results of The Africa Seed Access Index (TASAI) initial study; explore export markets for agriculture goods to the East Africa Exchange - Branchless Banking: Collaborate with GSMA and network operators to launch interoperability working group, while launching an evaluation of the current state of agent networks in DRC - SME Finance: Scope opportunities for Collateral Management Agreement (CMA) replication in Kinshasa, while finalising agreements to support the launch of leasing products before year-end - Renewable Energy: The national marketing renewable energy campaign will be rolled out while additional partnerships on distribution and marketing are launched - River Transport: Freight forwarders will open new sites in Northern DRC to evacuate agriculture goods, while the team conducts a review of current state of taxation on river trade Programme Management: - Receive the final report of the mid-term evaluation and incorporate results into 2018 business plan - Complete non-objections for additional large partnerships in the 2017 pipeline - Develop measurement framework for indirect beneficiaries, while reviewing the impact on results of the political and economic climate SECTORS PERENNIAL AGRICULTURE ELAN and ESSOR supported the export association (ASSECAF) and the national coffee office (ONC) respectively to further reduce export taxes – resulting in a draft ONC protocol to cut ONC’s tax from 4.5 to 2%. While production and processing interventions were rolled out, new interventions were developed to link producers to markets (Coffee Atlas), bolster access to finance (Root Capital), and realize sourcing model shifts and traceability systems (CoffeeLac). Congo Coffee Atlas Featured at Congo Breakfast During 72nd UN General Assembly: Having concluded first sweeps of data collection and cleaning, and with the design and development of the online business intelligence dashboard finalized, the Congo Coffee Atlas was chosen to be featured during an IFAD-sponsored Congo breakfast in September. Dashboard Architect and ELAN Advisor Sebastien Picard represented the program and provided a demonstration for major buyers, industry stakeholders, and policy makers. The event allowed ELAN to prominently showcase the Atlas’ depth, usability, and unmatched utility. Quarter 4 Key Activities - Organisation of International Coffee Day with ESSOR (Kinshasa and Goma), with industry & consumer facing events and formal presentation of the Coffee Atlas - Production

    P a g e | 1 INTRODUCTION GENERALE 0.1. Problématique Le présent mémoire porte sur les logotypes et la signification : Analyse de la dénotation et de la connotation des logotypes des banques Trust Merchant Bank (TMB) et Rawbank. En effet, Sperber1 dit qu’il n’y a rien de plus banal que la communication, car les êtres humains sont par nature des êtres communiquant par la parole, le geste, l’écrit, l’habillement et voire le silence, etc. La célèbre école de Palo Alto le dit tout haut aussi: on ne peut pas ne pas communiquer, tout est communication2. La communication, nous la pratiquons tous les jours sans y penser (mais également en y pensant) et généralement avec un succès assez impressionnant, même si parfois nous sommes confrontés à ses limites et à ses échecs. La communication demeure l’élément fondamental et complexe de la vie sociale qui rend possible l’interaction des personnes et dont la caractéristique essentielle est, selon Daniel Lagache3, la réciprocité. Elle est ce par quoi une personne influence une autre et en est influencée, car elle n’est pas indépendante des effets de son action. Morin affirme même que la communication a plusieurs fonctions : l’information, la connaissance, l’explication et la compréhension. Toutefois, pour lui, le problème central dans la communication humaine est celui de la compréhension, car on communique pour comprendre et se comprendre4. Raison pour laquelle, les chercheurs en matière de communication, surtout de notre ère, époque marquée par l’accroissement des entreprises dans la plupart des secteurs de la vie sociale, se trouvent confronté à de nouvelles problématiques qui sont autant d’enjeux pour améliorer la communication.
