Programme for the integration of international cooperation into the implementation of local development strategies

Abstract

The program starts from the logic of local development, the ongoing transformations promoted in the country with the implementation of the guidelines and the need to contribute to the improvement of the living conditions of the territory population. It is inserted strategically in the implementation of the Articulated Platform for Integral Territorial Development in Cuba. The aim is to strengthen ongoing processes and connect to national socioeconomic development priorities, in coordination with the territorial development agendas, contributing to the escalation of the economy and consolidation of economic circuits; as well as the increase in the levels of income, employment and access to services of the population, with emphasis on women and young people; all of the above from: supporting economic development sectors that are part of value chains and generate employment capacity for the local population and promote initiatives aimed at the provision of local services through multi actoral and interterritorial articulations. In order to disseminate experiences, it is also proposed to systematize and disseminate the practices and instruments promoted around the management of territorial development on the basis of multi-actor, multi-level and interterritorial articulation. This is expected from the promotion of local projects that value endogenous potentials and respond to differentiated dynamics and needs of the population of these territories.
