Value chains can be strengthened by supporting all their stakeholders, especially small producers, which in turn helps to close structural gaps. In 2013, ECLAC worked jointly with governments and the private sector in Central America to st…
El trabajo de la CEPAL que se resume en este libro tiene dos elementos
distintivos. En primer lugar, tiene como fundamento una metodología participativa. Todas las etapas del proceso están caracterizadas por el

Several countries in the region are now in the process of further upgrading their services exports to participate in knowledge process outsourci…
