</p><ul><li> The modernization of the line in Morocco (Fes- Oujda),
</li><li> The rehabilitation of the section between Morocco and Algeria (Cross-border Morocco- Algerian, Ouida- Akid Abbas),
</li><li> The creation of a new cross-border rail link between Algeria and Tunisia (linking Annaba to Jendouba),
</li><li> The modernization between Jendouba and Jedeida,
</li><li> Different technological interventions for energy and control and signalling subsystems.</li></ul><p>The project serves an existing infrastructure asset of another sector, but there is more than 50% overlap in the geography serviced by the proposed project and the other sector existing asset.</p><p>Tracks, structures and tunnels, to be built or duplicated. In addition, all sections will be electrified with the 2x25 kV electrification subsystem and train management will be carried out with the ERTMS N2 subsystem. One-off interventions in signalling and telecommunications subsystems are also planned.<br></p>

<p>Border Logistics Zones play a very important role in the socio-economic and sustainable development of AMU member countries and fall within its strategy for the creation of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) with the dismantling of all tariff and non-tariff barriers to international trade. The development and implementation of cross-border logistics centres is one of the key points of this objective and for promoting and accelerating regional economic integration. The general project objectives are to: &bull; Increase trade &bull; Ensure better inter-agency and cross-border cooperation and information sharing; &bull; Simplify and harmonise procedures &bull; Ensure faster clearances and reduced costs &bull; Encourage investment in the region &bull; Encourage regional and continental tourism &bull; Contribute to achieving the goals of Agenda 2063.</p>

<p>Regional Rusumo Falls Hydroelectric Project (RRFHP) Development Objective is to increase the supply of electricity to the national grids of Rwanda, Tanzania and Burundi. It Comprises of construction of an 80 MW power plant including the associated generation substation. The project is jointly financed by&Acirc; the Governments of Rwanda, Burundi and Tanzania with credits and grants totaling to USD 340&Acirc; million equivalent for the Civil Works and Electromechanical Works. AfDB parallel-financing is associated with the transmission lines to each of the three countries at a cost of USD 121 Million.&Acirc; These include 220kV transmission lines double circuit running 161 km from the power plant to Gitega substation in Burundi, 119km double circuit line from the Power plant to Shango sub-station in Rwanda and 98.2 km double circuit line from the power plant to Nyakanazi sub-station in Tanzania.The project has the following components CP1 (Civil Works); CP2 (Electromechanical works); Livelihoods Restoration Program (LRP); and Local Area Development Program (LADP). Out of the USD 340 million, the budget breakdown for each of the component is as follows: (i)LADP allocation is USD&Acirc; 15 million (USD 5 million for each country (Burundi, Rwanda and Tanzania); (ii)LRP allocation is about USD&Acirc; 711,612 (only for PAPs); and (iii)The remaining is for CP1, CP2, OE, and PIU operations.The three governments mandated and entrusted Nile Basin Initiative /Nile Equatorial lakes Subsidiary Action Program Coordination Unit (NBI/NELSAP CU) to coordinate the implementation of the project. The Nile Basin Trust Fund (NBTF) financed the Feasibility and Design Studies to a tune of USD 7.72 million. The studies were carried out from 2005 and completed in 2013. The studies were undertaken by NBI/NELSAP CU. The Project was approved by the World Bank in 2014; procurement of CP1 Contractor and CP2 Contractor was started in 2015 and completed and Contracts signed on 9th November, 2016; mobilization for construction works started in December 2016/January 2017; and the project completion date is 2021.</p>

<p>In the desire of the United Nations system to support African countries, a framework has been developed to support the implementation of priority programs of the New Partnership for Africa's Development (NEPAD). This is how, at the level of Central Africa, the Sub-Regional Mechanism for Coordinating the support of the United Nations System to the African Union. and its NEPAD program in Central Africa (MSRC/ AC) was created in 2009. This mechanism provides for a regular meeting to evaluate the actions and measures carried out or carried out by the various United Nations structures in support for institutions and Central African integration programs. The evaluation report of the second Joint Indicative Program (JIP-2) of the Subregional Coordination Mechanism (MSRC) to support the implementation of the AU/NEPAD Program in Central Africa highlighted two major difficulties: 1. Poor selection and preparation of projects and, 2. Poor coordination of the implementation ofprograms/projects. An analysis of these two difficulties shows that they are the consequences of two root causes: 1. Insufficient mastery and practice of the Logical Framework Approach and, 2. Insufficient mastery and practice of program/project life cycle management .</p>

<p> This project aims to provide the sub-regional space of ECCAS with infrastructures which participate in the securing cyberspace and help create trust in a world increasingly digital and to guarantee the digital sovereignty of States.</p>
