Regional Strategy Paper. IFAD Strategy for Rural Poverty Reduction in Latin American and the Caribbean

The aim of IFAD in Latin America and the Caribbean is to enable the rural poor to overcome their poverty. IFAD strategy derives from four fundamental sources: (a) the unique characteristics of rural poverty in the region; (b) recent financial crises and emergency situations in several countries; (c) IFAD’s strategic framework; and (d) its experience in the region.
This paper reports about IFAD's strategy and plans in order to accomplish its goals.
