PRAMS project aimed to maintain and improve livelihoods and food security for the communities of Hamdallaye and Fassaly Foutabhè in Guinea. Implemented as part of the Resettlement and Compensation Action Plan associated with the expansion project of the Compagnie des Bauxites de Guinée (CBG), the project supported affected people in developing sustainable income-generating activities.

Through support to Economic Interest Groups (EIGs), the project contributed to the development of agricultural and entrepreneurial activities in vegetable production, livestock farming, poultry farming, cane rat farming and baking. Training, technical support and productive infrastructure also helped strengthen participants' capacities and promote the economic autonomy of communities.
