Rural Poverty Reduction in Northeast Brazil : Achieving Results through Community-Driven Development
Over the past two decades, Brazil has
been employing a very innovative community-driven
development (CDD) approach to reducing rural poverty in its
Northeast region. These efforts began with a relatively
small pilot in the late 1980s, which was then extended to
the entire Northeast region in the early 1990s. Emboldened
by early results on the ground, the state and Federal
governments have since continued to steadily scale up this
CDD program, known in Brazil as the Programa de Combate a
Pobreza Rural (PCPR, or by its English acronym of RPRP,
Rural Poverty Reduction Program), to the point where it is
now reaching some 11 million people. The process has been
one of continual piloting, refinement and expansion,
underpinned by very active monitoring and evaluation efforts
by the government itself, the World Bank as the primary
external partner, foreign and local non-governmental
organizations (NGOs) and academics.
