AMERINDIAN DEVELOPMENT FUND

The Amerindian Development Fund was established to provide funding to support the socio-economic development of Amerindian communities and villages, through the implementation of their Community Development Plans (CDPs). The project aims to strengthen the entrepreneurial and institutional capabilities of the village economies of Amerindian communities; improve linkages with the private sector to further develop value chains; and strengthen institutional frameworks to support local economies. CDPs being implemented by communities and villages cover projects in the following sectors: agriculture, village infrastructure, tourism, manufacturing, village business enterprise, and transportation.
