Kalokola Batala, 40 years, married and with 11 kids is a hunter and farmer from Ngazi. With the support of the project, Kalokola has recently planted 2 hectars of rice. "Hunting has become always more difficult as animals are less and you need to go deeper in the forest for many days and up to 4 times a month otherwise you can't live out of it. I have also 10 years experience in cultivating rice, manioc and corn and, now, I would like to dedicate more time to agriculture as it's what has allowed me to purchase chairs and other things for the house".

Mbisa Batala, 39 years, married and with 6 kids is a hunter and farmer from Ngazi. With the support of the project, Mbisa has recently planted 2 hectars of mbika." I have been hunting since my early twenties and I normally stay up to a week in the forest in a camp I and my brothers have built. Going away for so long is a problem as somebody in the family can fall sick and you can't do anything and it's always more difficult to get wild animals so it's not a good business. I also do farming (mbika, manioc, corn) and have 15 years experience. I'm getting old and I would like to concentrate all of my efforts in cultivation as it's the only way to make good money".

Adisi Eboma, 30 years, married and with 6 kids is a hunter from Weko. With the support of the project, Adis will breed pigs. "I enter the forest 3 or 4 days per week and stay at a camp my familly has built. I also fish along the small rivers. The problem is that hunting has become increasingly difficult as animals are getting further deep in the forest. My brother has experience with pigs and is doing good business so I will try to breed them instead of going hunting".

Benama Lotange, 35 years, married and with 4 kids is a hunter and photographer from Ngazi. With the support of the project, Benama is going to benefit from a small studio and gear to ramp up his photo business. "I used to go hunting 4 or 5 days in a week but in 2019 I realized that it was always harder to make a living out of it and decided to buy a small camera and portable printer to take pictures at ceremonies, family reunions, etc. It worked and I know I could do much more if I had better gear and a photo studio with a bigger printer. There are many opportunities between Weko and Ngazi and I could be a photographer full time".
Yenga HeÌleÌne, 35 years, married and with 5 kids, sells bushmeat at the market of Yangambi. With the support of the project, Yenga will start breeding pigs. "Selling bushmeat is not a full time work and benefits are low. I have had pigs (free) in the past and made enough money from them as to pay for my kids' school and buy many things".
Basua Mwangaza, 38 years, married and with 6 kids, sells bushmeat at the market of Yangambi. With the support of the project, Basua will start breeding pigs. "Selling bushmeat is good to pay for your basic needs but not for more. I had goats once (free) in another village near here and that seemed to me a good business. I'm curious to see with the pigs".
