Zengo Mikomanwa, Programme Officer for Heifer International,
introduces the livestock-component of the Maisha Bora programme to the village
committee members in Magadini village.
From 12th until 29th of
April local partners of the Maisha Bora programme organized the first village
committee meetings. The village committees are made up of 12 members, both women and men, who represent the interests, needs and wishes of the local
communities. The members of the village committee will oversee the
implementation of the programme activities in the villages, advise local
partners, ensure communication and information sharing within the communities
and facilitate community participation.
These ambitions were put into practice with the organization
of the first village committee meetings. Committee members and programme
partners got introduced to each other, the different Maisha Bora components
were explained and the roles and responsibilities were discussed.
During the course of the programme field officers of the
Maisha Bora partners will coach these committees to increase their capacity to become
stewards of the Maisha Bora programme and advise the partners accordingly. The committees will be the crucial link
between the communities and the Maisha Bora programme to create mutual
accountability in our programme.
