** The evaluation and future of the PDL 145 territories: what role for deputies and what mechanisms for the success of the second phase? **
The local development program 145 territories (PDL 145 territories) represents a crucial initiative for the development of rural areas in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Its first phase is now evaluated, and the results, although encouraging, raise questions regarding the implementation of the second phase, in particular the rehabilitation of agricultural service roads. In a recent meeting, the Minister of Finance, Doudou Fwamba, insisted on the importance of a detailed chronogram to ensure the smooth running of this program. The issues are multiple, and the composer of the dialogue between the different actors, in particular the deputies, is essential.
### The role of deputies: an essential lever
In the context of the second phase of the PDL, the role of national and provincial deputies could be decisive. They can act as intermediaries between the State and local communities, thus facilitating better taking into account the needs and expectations of populations. To be effective, deputies could take several initiatives:
1. ** Mobilization of the population **: engaging citizens in the process of planning and monitoring projects can strengthen their appropriation. By organizing local consultations, deputies could collect opinions on the priorities to rehabilitate agricultural service roads.
2. ** Awareness of the importance of infrastructure **: deputies can play a key role in raising awareness of farmers and local elected officials on the importance of good infrastructures for the evacuation of agricultural products. Collective awareness could encourage more commercial agriculture compared to domestic agriculture, often perceived as a less risky solution.
3. ** Advocacy for funding **: they can also act as a megaphone with government bodies to ensure that the resources necessary for the implementation of the second phase be allocated and used effectively.
### Mechanisms for effective execution
The execution of the second phase of the PDL is based on the implementation of robust mechanisms. Here are some tracks that deserve to be explored:
1. ** Continuous evaluation and transparency **: Establish a continuous evaluation system which allows us to follow not only the pace of the realization of infrastructure, but also their quality. Transparency in markets and resource awarding processes is essential to gain the confidence of local communities.
2. ** Public-private partnerships **: the involvement of the private sector in the rehabilitation of roads could provide technical expertise and additional financial resources. Partnerships with local businesses could also generate jobs and stimulate the local economy.
3. ** Training and support for farmers **: In addition to improving infrastructure, it is crucial to support this project with adequate training for farmers on best agricultural practices adapted to new possibilities for evacuating their products.
4. ** Community monitoring **: Create local follow -up committees which include representatives of farmers and deputies could promote inclusive governance of the project. These committees would be able to bring up the problems and offer real -time adjustments.
### Conclusion
In short, the second phase of the PDL 145 territories could prove to be crucial for the development of rural areas in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The joint responsibility of deputies and local communities will be essential to guarantee its success. The strategies of involvement, transparency, partnership and socio-economic support will constitute the pillars of a successful implementation, thus allowing farmers to fully benefit from the infrastructure necessary for their activity. The path is still long, but the basics of a reinforced collaboration between the State and the local populations are legitimately posed.
