Summary and headline written by AI from the source article. How we work
In Côte d’Ivoire, the regional directorate for National Cohesion, Solidarity and the Fight Against Poverty delivered food and hygiene kits to 60 families in the Cavally region.
Twenty families received aid in Guiglo, ten in Bloléquin, and thirty in Toulépleu. The assistance formed part of the government’s “Popote Familiale” program, now in its second year, which aims to strengthen families by providing resources valued at 50,250 CFA francs per household.
This year’s program differed from the first by including training for recipients. The training covered income-generating activities, community savings groups, family budgeting, and business planning. Each family is expected to develop a small business plan to implement over six months, and the government plans to provide 100,000 CFA francs in additional funding to support these new ventures. The aid will be delivered directly to Bloléquin and Toulépleu due to the vulnerability of families in those areas.
