Despite the efforts undertaken in recent years for the stabilization and socio-economic recovery of the country, notably through the implementation of the RCPCA and the national strategy for the restoration of State authority, the challenges remain. On the security front, more than 60% of the territory is still occupied by armed groups, with all the consequences in terms of constraints on the redeployment of the administration and the revival of economic and social development.
Thus, with all the economic potential of Mobaye, this sub-prefecture is in the “Low” category, reflecting the low development of basic social services and the extreme precariousness of the living conditions of the population.

In Mobaye, almost all the administrative infrastructure, including the prefecture and the premises of the internal security services (police and gendarmerie), are to be rehabilitated or rebuilt.
In this context, in September 2019, with financial support from the PBF, UNDP and FAO launched a joint project to support local governance and equitable access to the peace dividend in the Basse-Kotto and Haut-Mbomou prefectures. The main objectives of the project are:
(i) support the momentum of redeployment of the administration and capacity building of decentralized and decentralized structures of the administration with a view to better delivery of basic public services;
(ii) mobilize all local actors around a shared vision of local governance, supported by the development and implementation of coherent and realistic local development plans through a participatory and inclusive approach; and
(iii) as dividends of peace and stability, to improve the conditions of the population in a lasting way by reviving productive activities, particularly in the agriculture and livestock sectors.

In line with the commitments made under the joint UNDP/PBF project, the intervention priorities have been focused on the rehabilitation and equipping of administrative buildings. To this end, after consultations with the local administrative authorities, it was agreed in the context of the implementation of this project, and on the basis of the experience of collaboration in the implementation of the joint project - young people, UNDP decided to conclude a partnership agreement with the NGO COHEB for the construction and equipping of some administrative buildings for the benefit of decentralized services and local authorities.
