Wood is the main source of d e energy used by the majority of the population of our country, the nin B. Today, it lies today today the door d desertification not only cause of anthropogenic actions in response the strong demand of the populations of large cities like Cotonou but its climate which is distinctive rise by a bad r score of rain in time and in space. This situation constitutes a serious s threat biodiversity and p ril forest World Heritage d clar class on the national territory. L agroecosystem me forest lies the blow d s balanced. Worse, the combustion without control the of this form of energy by the population including the fishmongers, causes regular particularly l mission d important amount s of MED e and d energy heat l atmosphere re thus contributing its pollution and its warming r. The submitted project is a s series d shares which is defined initially by a s series d capabilities-building a segment of the population of the communities of p che in a second by promoting homes am lior s more and more active in the processing of fish products. B n recipients are r-fish transformative women United within l Association Nationale des fishmongers and wholesalers of B nin (ANM). These b n recipients are also the targets of the support Programme for the development D participatory of P che craft (PADPPA) that the MJCD pilot in the LITTORAL. This intervention is a contribution of biodiversity protection and contributes also somewhat slow down climate change. Its implementation will enable the processing of fish d am improve their condition (d) availability. It will enable them inter alia to reduce d energy losses heat li es their activities while contributing the decrease of the masses of e Med envoy es daily in l atmosphere re. The n recipients may pursue alternative activities not polluting through support of the MJCD allowing them to take advantage of its partnership with the BRS (Bank R regional solidarity) to mount them plans business submit to funding. This project is seen for a period d p a year. The MJCD remains convinced that the major impacts and multiplying positive effects will be s observer starting from the second I year of implementation.
