As part of the ProAct programme, FAO, with the support of the European Union, implemented a project that has resulted in the rehabilitation of 24 ancillary structures (intakes, bridges, foot and vehicles canal crossings and culverts) at the Cessare Marai, Dhame Yassin, El-Shikhaal, Shalambood and Palestine.

The programme has also improved the village connections by providing safe, year-round access to farms, markets, schools and health care via 24 crossing structures rehabilitated in command areas. Five existing water committees have also been strengthened and endorsed by the Ministry of Agriculture and Irrigation, Southwest State, Somalia.
