FEMCIDI Executive Secretariat for Integral Development (SEDI) Organization of American States (OAS)

Created in 1997 for the purpose of attending the most urgent needs of the Member States of the OAS, especially those with relatively less developed economies. FEMCIDI projects focus on human capacity building and strengthening of governmental institutions, acting as pilots for larger and farther reaching development programs. FEMCIDI is a program funded by the annual voluntary contributions of member states to promote horizontal and multinational cooperation projects in the priority areas stemming from the political mandates of the Organization. Special Multilateral Fund of the Inter-American Council for Integral Development (FEMCIDI)

Between 1997 and 2007, 961 projects and/or phases of projects were funded for a total amount of US $ 93.3 millions. Positive results:  Hundreds of communities served and institutions strengthened  Thousands of families received assistance  Men and women better prepared for work  Children with improved academic levels FEMCIDI
