Procedure for the evaluation of the impacts of municipal development strategies

Abstract

Local development in Cuba has become a public policy of strategic importance as a complement to the National Plan for Economic and Social Development until 2030, as well as a central and articulating axis of the public agendas of governments at the municipal and provincial levels. The general objective of the research is to design a procedure for the evaluation of the impact of municipal development strategies, which contributes to timely decision-making for their continuous improvement. Based on theoretical and empirical methods, procedures and techniques (abstract and concrete, analysis and synthesis, bibliographic review, standardized individual interview, semi-structured group interview and survey), the theoretical and methodological foundations associated with the evaluation of municipal development strategies are identified and the current situation of this process in the municipality of Consolación del Sur is characterized. On this basis, the proposed procedure is elaborated with its premises, the creation of a working group and six stages with their respective steps and techniques to be applied.
