Grant Description

The Market Access and Poverty Alleviation (MAPA) project was designed to increase the incomes of the rural poor in the Valleys and Yungas regions of Bolivia by improving producer access to markets and stimulating market demand for priority crops and services, while building a viable system of agricultural innovation organizations capable of replicating MAPA techniques and successes on a sustainable basis.

This evaluation, conducted by two senior specialists in agricultural program and policy implementation, focused on project accomplishments to date, measurable impacts on poverty reduction, and the effectiveness and sustainability of project interventions.
