Project plan
I.	Introduction
Kalima town is located at 100 km from Kindu city the capital of Maniema Province. It is inhabited by a population of about 136000 people. At an altitude of 1200 to 1600 meters. It’s  a mining region.
Before the war of liberation of Laurent Désiré KABILA, the war of 1996, that town of Kalima housed a Belgian mining company “SOMINKI” (Industrial and Kivu mining company). This was exploiting various minerals: coltan, gold, tin etc. Besides of the exploitation of minerals, the society had the manpower of at least 3000 employees of its workers.
To this  end, it had  at 12km from the town  of Kalima a fish ponds station  in the  camp  of with  36 fish ponds  where it was  breeding  fish  to feed it  workers. Here was produced  each month a great  quantity  of fish species “ TILAPIA”, furdermore, the company  also sensibilize villagers  in rice culture  supplying seeds to  farmers and at  the sometime, buy  their  harvest  during the harvest  period.
The bankruptcy of SOMINKI Company left a chaotic situation to all agents of this great company and their dependents. Since then the social conditions of the inhabitants of the city of Kalima Belgian mining city. Because left to their own fate.
In fact, since the Bankruptcy of the given company several initiatives were made to revive the hatchery but the benefits have not always lived up to expectations.
This has been on base of the total abandonment of the activity of the fish hatchery of “BISAMENGO.
Our association  has found out numerous initiatives  on the part  of farmers  who also lead not  to the expected results, the real  questions  is whether  the conditions to generate  a development of fish breeding  are fulfilled(which justifies  our project) or how the could  be (which justifies the pilot project).
Aware of the socio economic despair  experienced by the promotion  and the well being  of communities  through their  activities  of self  care  and the development  of the human being. 
Believe  that unit is strength  and that the fact of gathering on self in an organized manner will improve living conditions to ensure  the progress and development  of men and women who live  in this  region  of the country(city of Kalima), we gathered  together  to fight against poverty  and other problems of socio economic organization, creating  what  we now  call PIEADC.
Then a plat form of peasant organizations gathers all the sectors of peasant life among other income generating incomes.           
II.	  Project Overview.
The role of fish in total meat consumption is relatively low in the city; it is limited in the villages. Most of the time, fish, pork and fowls are consumed for ceremonies or celebrations of family daily parties.
While these species are known to play an important role in the rapid growth of the production of animal protein.
However, the supply of fish to the town of Kalima comes largely from a multitude of very small farms scattered in almost all localities of the territory and whole bases are largely unknown.
As SOMINKI society is the lung of socio economic development  of our community  and the province of Maniema, today in bankruptcy  and the  responsible  of that society  are not  able  to  rehabilitate  that fish ponds forsaken  and can’t  manage the rehabilitation  of the site where  the fish ponds were maintained which are situated at 12km  from the town  of Kalima the social infrastructure which  died of neglect.
This, the society has given to our  association PIEADC these  ponds  for an indefinite period for major  interest of the population of Kalima because  the degradation situation  of ponds of the  site  BISAMENGO  is also  the basis  of malnutrition  unprecedented  food  for thousands of  people of  Kalima and find  a solution  the issue  of access to seeds fry to fish farmers to create a village intensive fish farming  in the  rural areas while improving  the technical capacity of farmers.
The first phase  of this project is to  rehabilitate  fish ponds  of BISAMENGO   for  a period  of two years  and  during  this time the  villagers  will suffer two  farmer trainings on a new  technic  for  fish farming. Here we note that some fish ponds have already been rehabilitated and about twenty left is the subject of our request for help or financial assistance.
The second phase, a distribution of fingerlings to farmers who have been trained and the mechanism for the sustainability of the project. Here some of the fish will be sold to support the NGO PIEADC. It is estimated  that  after twenty four months  of work PIEADC occur on average  twice  TILAPIA  fish which  would be sold  in the  town  of Kalima. Sixty percent of this production will serve to replenish the account to create a cooperative for long term management of the project.
Forty percent will be granted who have followed two trainings on the new method of fish farming in their respective ponds.
Finally, PIEADC with its pilot project for the welfare of people buy products from farmers, preserve and store in freezer for resale to consumer center.
With this arrangement PIEADC plans to raise the income of farmers to obtain loans from micro finance institutions.  A long term project.
III.	Objectives of the project
Initiating this project  of the rehabilitation of the fishponds  station  of BISAMENGO,   association PIEADC  is in  the need  of better  management  of  the promotion  and increase  fish production  and enable farmers  to make more profits  of their  farming activities.
The overall objective  is to  improve  the living  conditions  of farmers  and introduce  improved construction  of a peasant organization  more  commercial.     
IV.	     Justification  of the project
Following the economic  and social  difficulties  that people  of Kalima and the peasants  in particular are having, PIEADC found  is useful  to present  the project  to rehabilitate  twenty  fishponds. It aims to improve the living standard of farmers who the direct beneficiaries of this project and nutritional conditions of the population of Kalima  and the  surrounding areas.
The rehabilitation  of fish ponds of the BISAMENGO station associated with  the formation  of village farmers requires broad  participation  and contribution  of all actors of development  in which  all beneficiaries  are aware of and expected  to experience  the best  of themselves.
On the economic front, breeders recognize to find sleep   of their products in order to stabilize the market and improving the technical capacity and better access to information and training, will enable  them to obtain  new business opportunities and strengthen  their capacity.

VI.	Expected outcomes
When the project is actually implemented, the following results are expected:
3	The hatchery BISAMENGO  site is rehabilitated as a  whole
4	The actual workers is put into execution, the  execution and management  bodies are involved,
5	Fish ponds  are maintained  daily by the objectives of the project, the NGO PIEADC  evaluates the performance  of the work and inform  the partner, village farmers are sensitized and trained on a new method  of fish farming,
6	The authorities take note of the commitments and  achievement  of the project and build confidence  with the NGO PIEADC,
7	The partner who finances the project moves on ground to ensure the progress and purpose of the project contribution to the time fixed by PIEADC and issues its opinion.
VII.	Monitoring and evaluation
For a good accompaniment to the execution of this project, the NGO-  PIEADC will follow up on land and independence  on the progress.
Assessment depend on the period fixed by the lesser will strengthen the capacity of stakeholders in the few flaws observed during execution.
Even before the start of collection operations backers must participate or, if delegated representative. At each end of the month, a report outlining the steps of the project will be sent to donor funds to ensure constraints and acts of responses.
VIII.	 Conclusion 
Given that the population  of town of Kalima  consumes fish at the time and occasional villagers farmers have huge problems yield is very low, the need to rehabilitate  the whole  hatchery  BISAMENGO wants  to meet PIEADC  in partner ship with  other government  actors  and the private sector to the needs of the population, but knows  the lack of financial resources.
All partner in local, national and international are expected to lend support to NGO- PIEADC to achieve project objectives. For this project PIEADC nourishes  the hope of becoming a catalyst for the aspirations and the fight against  poverty population and village farmers  where a partner is present, the PIEADC take  responsibility  for the project  and  report  on all  issues surrounding the work  to partner the benefit of the population.    
IX.	  Recommendation 
To give a better qualitative response to the problems that existed in the population of Kalima. The formally lung city of Maniema province and farmers and villagers to mention that it is crucial to take measures that relate the realities on the ground. Despite the efforts that will implement PIEADC on this project without support of all partners’ ambitions can not succeed. So should men and women of goodwill who would act in this situation that crosses the farmers and inhabitants of the town of Kalima and its surroundings to pull the abyss. The national and local institutional leaders would inevitably contribute to the fight against poverty in rural areas. A substantial budget will be required for the proper execution of the project. The outcomes will have a real impact on the lives of people affected by this Kalima project farmers and villagers.
