Strengthening of Malinalco's Social Fabric

In the wake of the 2017 earthquakes Mexico faces unprecedented challenges to secure long-term recovery and to help communities prepare for future natural disasters.

Fundacin Comunitaria Malinalco A.C. (FCM) partners with communities in Malinalco impacted by the earthquake to improve food sovereignty and small-business productivity and to mitigate the impact of future natural disasters. At the IAF we support community-led solutions to expand economic opportunity in Mexico.

FCM's activities make more resources available to communities seeking to address their own development needs.

This grant is part of our broader initiative to encourage innovative and entrepreneurial approaches to unlock private public and local resources for grassroots development. This project has been made possible in part by a grant from the Silicon Valley Community Foundation.
