As part of the implementation of Libreville Sanitation Priority Program (APRIL) which is right in line with the Declaration of Urban Policy adopted in March 2000, to achieve the MDGs by 2025, the Government of Gabonese Republic plans to develop three watersheds (Gué-Gué, Lowé-IAI and Terre Nouvelle) with a surface area of 1,647 ha and a drainage network of 25 km long.
The total assessment of Resettlement Plan (PCR) for this project, implemented in accordance with national and international legislations, recognized 6,904 people to be moved and resettled involuntarily.

  • Building 1,100 homes with three different standings: NOYA type, LOWÉ type and N'KOK type; and
  • Building socio-collective facilities: a dispensary, a primary school, a college and a sports center.
