FOMINFIDA - MIF-IFAD Partnership Facility for Rural Private Sector Dev-LAC

closed

The general objective of this line of activity is to promote, through its strategic partnership with the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), sustainable rural financial and economic development by the participation of the migrant communities of the low-income population who are also remittance recipients. This program will be segmented into two types of individual projects: i) development of rural financial services; and ii) development of rural productive investment. Crucial to the operation of both types is the capacity building of migrant organizations and their integration with rural poor as full partners in strategies for transnational development. Given the transnational characteristics of the actors involved, the proposed Line of Activity takes into account the importance of sensitization of HTAs, thus will consider granting technical assistance to selected institutions in the migrant recipients countries, in particular USA.
