El programa “Sociedad, cultura y memoria” promueve la cultura y la memoria en América Central para impulsar procesos que conllevan a sociedades más inclusivas y menos violentas. Tanto la cultura como la memoria histórica tienen un enorme potencial como creadoras de identidad y transformadoras de sociedad en la región centroamericana, caracterizada por procesos de paz y democratización inconclusos y las más altas tasas de violencia en el mundo. Con su larga trayectoria en la región y su reputación imparcial Suiza está bien posicionado para potenciar estos procesos.

10'000 families in 19 municipalities of the country improve their food security and their situation of poverty by practising sustainable and climate-smart agriculture.

While the Las Segovias region has been marked by high levels of poverty, it is also characterised by its potential for economic development, albeit with only limited manufacturing activities. The programme will promote territorial economic development in ten municipalities and will contribute to benefit over 5000 microenterprises – owned mainly by women – and members of cooperatives from an increase in income by adding value to their products and through better sales due to improved access to markets.
Technical Assistance Medium Term Expenditure Framework, Phase III
01.02.2013
- 31.12.2016
The third phase of the MTEF program has two main objectives. First, it aims to meet the demands of the Nicaraguan authorities to strengthen their Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF), and draw on the recommendations laid in the final external review and thus amplify the scope of the Nicaraguan MTEF model and allow the MTEF become a more useful policy making tool. Secondly, the project has a regional component, that focus on the needs of central american countries in this area, so as to contribute to the dissemination of MTEF systems, while learning and adopting the Nicaraguan good practices in the subject.
