Grant Description

Yankuik Erandi Rural, A.C. (ERANDI), in collaboration with Red Campesina de Pequeos Productores (RCPP), will assess income- generating opportunities in 14 communities in the states of Chihuahua, San Luis Potos, Oaxaca and Tabasco.

Residents, Mexican agricultural workers in the United States with H-2A visas, and members of their families will use the assessments to draft proposals for municipal funding and for the Mexican government's program that matches support from diaspora communities.

Vista Hermosa Foundation, based in the state of Washington, will contribute to the planning process involving 600 farmers. Another 3,000 members of their families will benefit indirectly.
