IFAD in Brazil: voices from the field

© IFAD 		Strategic partnerships breathe life and hope into an impoverished community in Brazil

In the semi-arid northeast of Brazil, the IFAD-supported Dom Helder Camara project works with local governments, farmers’ organizations, civil society associations and state companies to improve poor people’s living conditions. Together they have brought safe water to communities, opened new markets for their farm products, trained young people and adults, and helped women obtain identity documents.
