Results of the FORSANDINO Project: Strengthening High Andes Indigenous Communities and Reviving their Traditional Products (2007-2011). Llaqta Kallpanchaq.
2013Also available in:
This publication aims to share the project’s experiences in the case of Peru, which have supported learning processes between direct and indirect stakeholders, and can be extended to all people interested in improving their practices in the present and future, based on the lessons learned from other experiences — in this case ours. As is the case of other materials included in the systemization stage, this product arises from a process of critical and participatory reflection, in which beyond th e numbers and figures resulting from project execution, we wish to delve deeper into several of aspects that could be lost or pass unnoticed by some people, but which play a large part in supporting the results achieved by the project, although very seldom mentioned in project systemizations. These data, knowledge, practices and experiences could become alternatives and criteria for present and future actions, because the stakeholders are convinced of, and agree on, the importance of having reco nstructed the past to produce knowledge and community know-how. Although there may be similarities between projects, each one is unique. Accordingly, these lessons learned, which go far beyond measurement of the achievements of the quantitative targets indicated in the project’s logical framework, serve as useful information to support more secure actions in present and future interventions. -

FORSANDINO project impact evaluation: Strengthening of high Andean Indigenous Organisations and Recovery of their traditional products (2007-2011)
2011Also available in:
From the beginning, the Project determined the need for and importance of conducting an impact evaluation to determine the project’s true achievements and impact once the intervention was completed. The impact evaluation, in fact, formed part of the Project Monitoring & Evaluation System. In keeping with that idea, it is our pleasure to provide a compendium of the main results from the qualitative evaluation and what we learned from conducting household surveys (quantitative evaluation) in the f inal phase of the Project.This report constitutes the final set of documents produced by the Project. It is intended to support planning, programming and decision making in the national, regional and local spheres as a means to improve food and nutritional security interventions directed at High Andean indigenous communities. -
Book (series)Technical studySupermarkets and the Artisanal Fisheries Sector in Latin America: Case Studies from Brazil and Peru
Case Studies from Brazil and Peru
2006Also available in:
No results found.The growth of the retail sector and its increasing dominance in food distribution to the consumer has led to a long-term shift in the distribution of economic power and the restructuring of supply systems. The purpose of this study was to try to analyze the impact of the super market development in two Latin American countries, Brazil and Peru, on the marketing channel of fish and seafood with particular reference to the artisanal fisheries sector. In this connection the study also describes the artisanal fisheries sector in both countries in some detail. Results from the study are based on a survey covering the expectations and requirements of supermarkets and linking these requirements to the reality in the artisanal fisheries sector. Under the impact of the supermarket’s alternative distribution network, traditional distribution wholesale and retail systems are adopting a competitive adaptation strategy based on the imposition of similar quality and logistical requirements. From the standpoint of smallscale producers, the principal conclusion points to strong selection processes which will spare only the most efficient and those able to confront the new barriers which include investment costs, management skills and new organizational forms involving higher levels of association and cooperation. In the annexes details of the interviews are presented for both countries.
