00:00:00the structuring, up to
00:00:04formalizing the structure and we have,
00:00:07by this same position,
00:00:10accompanied, we accompanied the revision of the
00:00:14NDCs with contribution notes and
00:00:17now that you are speaking, we are still
00:00:20members of the multi-stakeholder commission that
00:00:24prepares the country
00:00:26here, that civil society contributions for the COP, the COPs, the different COPs
00:00:29and in this context, there is a new
00:00:33note that has been published and the commission has been implemented, the
00:00:37service note based on the service note, Madam
00:00:40Minister, we are always by her side
00:00:44in this fight, you know
00:00:47uh in the case of that it's it's
00:00:49one of the rare ministers who truly
00:00:53supports civil society at this level,
00:00:57Madame Al Donono and...
00:01:00until she thought of having a
00:01:03technical advisor for civil society,
00:01:07you see, it's it's in
00:01:11and why not move Africa here, these are rare cases, especially in Central
00:01:14based on the map of Africa, but she thought about it and we are
00:01:17always by her side in this struggle, that's why we are
00:01:20always in uh uh uh this
00:01:23commission giving and making our contribution
00:01:27notes to prepare the
00:01:30contribution of Congo to the different COPs and
00:01:34that will be the case for COP
00:01:36Songha area, you know you are in the 31. 31. Okay, but
00:01:39how would you explain that to an individual who is
00:01:43also polluting their environment? Well, you see, the the
00:01:47message is clear today,
00:01:50the fight must be at all levels, at all
00:01:53levels, we, civil society, the
00:01:57public authorities, the state, the merchant who goes
00:02:01to the market, the villager who is deep down, the
00:02:05indigenous people we work with, everyone
00:02:09must play their role. What is that role? For
00:02:13example, we play that role already through
00:02:22Manager of reduction of the project, we are planting and this project, but it has another aspect that I haven't mentioned about the project,
00:02:26because it's the very first afforestation
00:02:30and reforestation project in Congo that
00:02:34will map a forest based on
00:02:37the national map,
00:02:40you see, so this will be a very
00:02:42beneficial project for multiple reasons,
00:02:46you see, so we offset the carbon
00:02:49credit and others, we have and we
00:02:53strengthen biodiversity, the habitat of
00:02:56biodiversity and we uh uh uh
00:03:00also do the PES, the payments for
00:03:04environmental services, the communities that are
00:03:07around and in the project area benefit from
00:03:11the improvement of their daily
00:03:14menu, meaning we encourage them to
00:03:17create income-generating activities, at
00:03:21our level we do it, there is also awareness,
00:03:24we must raise awareness, how
00:03:27do you raise awareness? Precisely, we work with... with the
00:03:30neighborhood committees and for some reasons we have initiated
00:03:34an awareness project that we called uh a
00:03:37closer awareness
00:03:40with these
00:03:43neighborhood chiefs so that in turn they can take over
00:03:47and even in Mongale here in the past we
00:03:50had with uh a
00:03:54counsel's help done awareness here, okay
00:03:57so we want to, so we are trying to... we
00:04:01have solicited
00:04:03and after from America, we have officially written, you
00:04:07see the areas uh where
00:04:10uh the erosions, after the
00:04:13erosions, we dump garbage there, and
00:04:16after uh sometimes trucks come to
00:04:20solidify it, but after the cause is
00:04:23there, it can come back and we have
00:04:27therefore exchanged during the... reception
00:04:30we benefited from Madam Matondo, we agreed
00:04:33that we could with
00:04:37their their
00:04:39plans and with the
00:04:41the well-being of town hall after having
00:04:44filled it, we come to plant to
00:04:47solidify this soil
00:04:50at that moment. What are the difficulties you encounter on the
00:04:53ground? The difficulties on the ground are
00:04:57of a financial
00:05:00nature and when we have, for example,
00:05:03different awareness campaigns, that requires resources, we
00:05:07mobilize a lot of people to
00:05:10go, for example,
00:05:12for a long time and after that we still have to reassure them with a small
00:05:16travel allowance and that's after, there is also a
00:05:20problem, we have signed
00:05:23uh a memorandum of understanding with
00:05:26the association of Tele Congo
00:05:29journalists for the environment, so
00:05:32we should always broadcast our
00:05:36activities, unfortunately our activities
00:05:40the...
00:05:42protocol was not really uh
00:05:45uh uh operational
00:05:48and respected and because why we had signed
00:05:52to have the facility
00:05:55that the network of journalists working for the
00:05:58environment should use our
00:06:01activities to precisely communicate and what are
00:06:05the future prospects for Bomoi for the Congo
00:06:09Climate Network? Well, uh here for
00:06:13Ndete Aboymi, there
00:06:16are many, there is already the
00:06:19tourist aspect because of the shape of this
00:06:23plantation which is
00:06:26Congo, so we
00:06:29would like it to be
00:06:32a small tourist site because
00:06:35within the interior we will
00:06:38also divide by department, when you arrive
00:06:41in this... plantation, if you are in the West Cuvette
00:06:45area, you know you are in the West Cuvette area, if you are in the
00:06:49Songha area, so that's
00:06:52it and another aspect is to
00:06:55make the payments for environmental
00:06:59services benefit the communities living
00:07:02in and around the project, we
00:07:05are also launching the production of in a given
00:07:08area, an area that we will target for honey
00:07:12production, so we will produce honey for the
00:07:16communities, that's it, and besides
00:07:19that we want uh
00:07:23to respond, that's the biggest objective, to
00:07:26respond to the
00:07:30the carbon footprint of SIAT
00:07:34which financed, which put its money so that this
00:07:37project can be realized,
00:07:41so in realized. We also want to uh value
00:07:45the carbon credit because we are not going to stop there, it
00:08:16You see, here I am in the
00:08:20plantation of
00:08:23cabritus of
00:08:25fast-growing species, so here
00:08:29we have established
00:08:31100 hectares, 100 hectares
00:08:35of plantation precisely to fight
00:08:39against global warming.
00:08:43And you see, he did a lot of agroforestry because
00:08:47next to these fast-growing species, we
00:08:50also planted cassava, so you see
00:08:53how it grows and it's barely really, that's
00:08:57what's good and you see for yourself
00:09:01how it looks, look at that, these are the
00:09:05plantations and it extends
00:09:09downwards until
00:09:18Back to our set, always accompanied by Mr. Okiri
00:09:22Blancha. Mr. Okeri, we are at the end of our interview, but
00:09:26before concluding, you spoke earlier about the various difficulties you
00:09:30encounter on the ground, so at this point, what message do you wish to
00:09:34convey to the Congolese people, to the authorities and partners
00:09:37to ensure the success of the project? Well, before
00:09:41uh difficulty level, I wanted to send a message
00:09:45to tell all Congolese that
00:09:49you see, we are here to work for
00:09:54humanity, so that the state and
00:09:57people understand that the service,
00:10:01the national afforestation and reforestation
00:10:04program, Pronar, supports us
00:10:08technically in the implementation of this project. In any case, we commend the
00:10:12forestry economy for this
00:10:14reason because it has provided us with its
00:10:18technicians to support us in the implementation of this project. People
00:10:22must understand that there are companies here
00:10:25that operate here and support the initiatives
00:10:29launched by public authorities. I would like to
00:10:32mention SIAT today, which
00:10:35has not remained on the sidelines of this initiative, which has
00:10:39decided to mobilize resources and make them available
00:10:42to us for the realization
00:10:45of this project. We also want to say,
00:10:51organizations are not sleeping, they are
00:10:54there. They just need to be
00:10:58encouraged to do great things in Congo. Alongside
00:11:02this project, we can do many things with
00:11:05the communities that are there, notably in the case of
00:11:09PC. We can
00:11:12awareness on the effects of climate
00:11:15change, there are several activities, we have
00:11:19projects, if there are people uh we are therefore
00:11:22calling out so that those who can
00:11:25hear us come and we will
00:11:29identify among our projects here what they
00:11:33can subsidize
00:11:55the General Manager, Mr. General Manager.
00:12:41And Mr. Lebella Isende Abondo
00:12:44Pitchu, General
00:12:47Economy and interim maintenance of
00:12:50navigable waterways incoming and
00:12:53I invite everyone. So for you, to look at
00:12:57the future with
00:12:59courage and a spirit of service, may
00:13:03God bless our work, accompany
00:13:06our efforts and guide our actions in the service of the
00:13:10Republic, thank
00:13:11you,
00:13:20the general
00:13:20manager.
00:13:56do you have them?
00:26:05It's your wife.
