Integrated Support for the Management of Local Development, the Promotion of Peaceful Societies, and Human Security in the Gbêkê Region, Specifically in the Four Localities of Béoumi, Bottro, Bouaké, and Sakassou

While Cote d’Ivoire has experienced strong economic growth over the last decade, the benefits have not been realized equitably, contributing to weakening social dynamics and post-electoral crises in certain regions, including the Gbêkê region. This programme aims to accelerate the SDGs at the local level and promote stability through a community-driven approach to expand equitable access to basic social services and employment opportunities for the most vulnerable groups, as well as to improve the social and community environment for stability and inclusive development. ​

The programme builds upon an initiative supported by the UNTFHS in 2019 to strengthen the application of human security towards accelerating the achievement of the SDGs at the local level in West Africa.

The key objectives of the programme are to: (i) establish an inclusive, community-driven and intersectoral mechanism based on the human security approach for exchange, learning, monitoring and community dialogue for peace and reconciliation; and (ii) improve access to basic social services for the most vulnerable populations to contribute effectively to the achievement of SDGs and human security at the local level.  ​
