IFAD in Chad: voices from the field

© IFAD 		Sowing the seeds of change in central Chad

The acid test of a project’s success is the legacy it leaves after closure. Two years after the end of the IFAD-supported Food Security Project in the Northern Guéra Region – Phase II (PSANG II), the benefits brought by the project continue to multiply. Offering a broad package of interventions, from building schools and wells to setting up credit systems, the project also helped boost agricultural productivity and set up microenterprises. Literacy training combined with capacity-building and awareness-raising have created solid foundations on which to base other interventions and make them sustainable. Both these activities have contributed to creating greater well-being within the community, and the capacity and motivation to continue developing beyond the life of the project.
