Rural Poverty Reduction Project ? SE

The Rural Poverty Reduction Project in the State of Sergipe is an agreement between the World Bank and the State Government of Sergipe, in which the World Bank offers lines of credit and investment in partnership with the State with the goal of reducing rural poverty. The methodology implemented, called CDD (Community-Driven Development), is based on participation, transparency, investment in local agents and extension of surveillance over public and private investments. All the planning, implementation and development of this project are conducted with the participation of social agents. Their engagement ranges from funding to community actions for poverty reduction, technical assistance, strengthening of civil society organizations working in rural areas, assembly of supervision councils and transparency and empowerment of social organizations for international funding.
