The blended operation is aimed at sustained poverty reduction and improved local governance through empowering communities and local governments, to improve natural resource and ecosystem management, and to raise levels of health, education, and food security, thereby stimulating economic growth. These goals will be achieved through local-level capacity-building efforts and implementation of demand-driven micro-projects.
