The improvement of infrastructure
services has proven to be a powerful tool in poverty
alleviation initiatives. Providing people with access to
basic and reliable infrastructure services are tools for
improving their standard of living and rising their
productivity-thus endowing them with the opportunity for
growth. This work aims to document the existing traditional
and non-traditional mechanisms used by Latin America and the
Caribbean (LAC) to reach the poor in infrastructure access
and affordability, and to provide factual anecdotal case
studies that represent this situation at a country,
community, and utility specific/sensitive level. The
specific objectives are: 1) to identify traditional and
alternate mechanisms for targeting the poor or those
designed by the poor in order to gain access to and maintain
infrastructure services; and b) to design a framework of
analysis in order to understand and analyze the various
components that account for the traditional and
non-traditional tools used to reach the poor (including
social tariffs, alternative technology, community driven and
managed activities, etc). Overall, the goal of this report
is to provide a comprehensive description of pro-poor
infrastructure practices at the regional level and to
present various case studies that account for the
heterogeneity of pro-poor mechanisms in LAC whether
traditional or alternate/innovative. |
