Cross-cutting Initiatives
Activities in the water and sanitation sector will leverage ongoing projects sponsored by the Inter-American Development Bank in order to encourage shifts in behavior and improve sanitation facilities. Interventions will include training local water committees and establishing WASH (Water, Sanitation and Hygiene) programs in schools and in the community.
Business development interventions will seek to improve livelihoods primarily by increasing farmers’ access to value-added production and small entrepreneurs’ access to credit for business start up. Interventions in this sector will include a micro-credit program, business development training, the establishment of cooperatives in various trades, and subsidies for seed and crop storage facilities.
The program will also support land tenure dispute resolution processes within the community.
