This note centers on the Honduras Access
to Land Pilot Project (PACTA). PACTA's objectives are
twofold, to: (1) facilitate access to land for landless
households through the land market; and (2) promote the
development of sustainable rural enterprises. PACTA's
achievements, thus far, can be summarized as follows: 1) It
established a working model for rural enterprise formation
that leverages private sector financing. 2) Grants made to
families are used to establish productive projects, leverage
a proportionally large private investment, and improve
access to land. 3) Twenty-seven group productive enterprises
and 54 individual enterprises have been established in 24
municipalities in 10 departments in Honduras, benefiting 414
families. No enterprise is in arrears on loan repayment. 4)
The program's methodology has been validated in
different regions with very different social and
environmental conditions. 5) Institutional alliances have
been established on a local level in support of the target
population. 6) Participatory monitoring and evaluation has
proven to be an essential component in the process and
enabled PACTA not only to make a number of adjustments in a
timely manner but to generate a stronger foundation for
moving beyond the pilot phase. |
