TAGS: ECON EAID CG DEM
SUBJECT: FY06 SPECIAL SELF-HELP FUND ALLCATION REQUEST 
 
REF: A. 05 STATE 1255 
     B. 5 STATE 1179 
     C. 05 STATE 1857 
 
1. (U) Embssy Kinshasa requests $82,500 in FY06 Special 
Self-Help Funds (SSHF) (reftel a). 
 
JUSTIFICATION 
------------ 
Embassy Kinshasa's seletion committe has chosen nine 
projects for FY06 SSHF, each o which will be directly 
overseen by a mission oficer and the SSHF funding 
coordinator.  Post has an outstanding record of financial 
management of SHF -- all prior year projects have been 
successully completed, and our 2005 Interim Obligation 
tatus Report and Annual Status Report have been submitted 
(reftels b and c).  Civil unrest and subsequent embassy 
drawdown and evacuation led to dramatic SSHF cuts the past 
several years, but Embassy Kinshasa is now ready and able to 
return to pre-1999 funding levels consistent with the size 
and political importance of the country. 
 
BACKGROUND 
---------- 
 
3. (U) The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), a nation as 
large as the United States east of the Mississippi, is just 
emerging from decades of dictatorship, war, and humanitarian 
catastrophe.  The DRC will take a major step toward democracy 
when the Congolese go to the polls this spring for the first 
free, national elections since 1960.  The stability of the 
entire region, DRC and its nine neighbors, rests on its 
successful transition from a conflict that has been the 
deadliest since World War II.  The need for American 
assistance to targeted groups is great, and Embassy Kinshasa 
has the capacity and will to support the DRC in the face of 
the most important democratic transition in a generation. 
 
PROJECTS 
-------- 
 
4. (U) The following nine projects are located in three 
historically underserved provinces (Bandundu, Equateur, and 
Eastern Kasai), in the troubled and crisis-prone province of 
Katanga, and in two poorer neighborhoods in the capital, 
Kinshasa.  Two of the nine projects support the Congolese in 
their fight against HIV/AIDS, one of our post's key Mission 
Program Plan goals.

come together to encourage agricultural production and 
decrease poaching.  Funds will be used to purchase gardening
