Role and strengths of FONCODES
What is Haku Wiñay / Noa Jayatai?
• A productive project targeting rural households on subsistence familyagriculture, in contexts of extreme poverty and vulnerability in the Andesand the Peruvian Amazon.
• HW focuses on the development of productive capacities and ruralentrepreneurship to improve food security and increase households'income, seeking to develop sustainability and resilience throughinnovative, adaptive, simple, replicable and low-cost productivetechnologies.
• Investment of around 1,400 USD per household for three (03) years ofintervention.
• Implemented through the Executing Nucleus modality.
• HW / NJ is also piloting an integrated model including productive inclusionservices and cash transfers to targeted families (Juntos)

Recovering traditionalknowledge
and incorporating it as part of the TA
Improving practices Strengthening community organizations
How does this happen?
• The year 2012 began a Pilot to articulate theintervention with JUNTOS (CCT) in 2 districts ofAyacucho (Andean region).
• As of 2014 HW is a Program by Results.• Currently it has national coverage and is highly
demanded by local governments.

Combininginterventions
- Training and personalized technical assistance by the ‘yachachiq’
- Accompaniment of yachachiq- Endowment of asset portfolio- Contests and competitions between households
Components
• A Yachachiq (the one who knows and teaches) is a productive leader of the community, who practices the local culture and lives in the project area.
• It has some type of formal or informal training on the management of various productive technologies that are simple and easy to replicate and/or adapt to similar contexts.
• He/she is responsible for technical assistance, capacity building and accompaniment of households. Applies participatory processes to "learn by doing“, from farmer to farmer.
• Key actor, engine of change.
Who is the Yachachiq?
Organic approach in production systems Sensitization, training and technical assistance to
yachachiq and users Incorporation of criteria and adaptive practices to
climate change into technical manuals Installation of technified irrigation at family level Technical sequence: irrigation-grass / pasture lands-
breeding Construction of greenhouses Soil conservation practices Reforestation and agroforestry Construction of 'Qochas' for sowing and harvesting
rainwater (pilot in Cusco and Apurímac) Expansion of technologies for sowing and harvesting
water to other territories.
Actions to strengthen criteria and practices for protection and resilience to climate and climate change, implies the following:

Technologies in greatest demand
• A community organized as a juridical private law organization able to hire and engage in administrative and court processes.
• It is led by a president, secretary, treasurer and an overseer appointed by the district municipality.
• The implementation of the Executing Nucleus model, under the supervision of FONCODES, has the following advantages: Active participation of the organized community Agility in the implementation of projects Transparency in the administration of resources Accountability Boosting social capital

Capacity building process
Social Development Cooperation FundFondo de Cooperación para el Desarrollo Social
• After MIDIS was established and the Include to Growstrategy was enacted, FONCODES started developing itsproductive inclusion programs as a complement tosocial policies.
• Need to redirect rural development efforts based on therural poor’s own initiatives and improve the producers’competitiveness from the standpoint of marketarticulation.
Juncture
• Takes account of specific circumstances and needs whendevising interventions that involve several povertyreduction strategies.
• Social transfers by themselves do not suffice to putbeneficiaries on the path to sustainable employmentand income generation (Robino and Soares 2015. Socialprotection, entrepreneurship and labor marketactivation: evidence for better policies.)
Juncture
Juntos is Peru’s national program to support the neediest. It seeks to help building human capital and interrupt the intergenerational transmission of poverty through Conditional Cash Transfers (CCT). Co-responsibilities include Health and Education.
JUNTOS (Together) Program
PROGRAMCOMPLEMENTARY INTERVENTIONS
(COMPONENTS)POTENTIAL SYNERGIES/ EFFECTS
JUNTOS
1) Conditional cash transfers (62.5 USD every 2 months) as a conditioned incentive to access and use health, nutrition and education services.
• Families improve their income, food consumption and access to education and health for children and mothers.
• Families allocate part of their monetary income (CCT) to invest in productive activities and businesses supported by HW / NJ
2) Joint activities with the education and health sectors to provide services to pregnant mothers and their children
HAKUWIÑAY/NOAJAYATAI
3) Technical assistance, training and personalized support to each household to gain access to productive technologies.
Families improve their production, agricultural productivity and diversification of their crops and livestock for food security.
4) Technical assistance and materials to improve living conditions at home.
Families reduce consumption of firewood; as well as the incidence of respiratory and diarrheal diseases.
5) Technical assistance and provision of assets for rural enterpreneurs, through the management of competitive funds.
Families generate autonomous income through their small inclusive rural businesses.
6) Capacity building to facilitate financialinclusion.
Families and their enterprises are linked to the formal financial system.
Potential synergies from the articulationbetween JUNTOS - Haku Wiñay
# IMPACT BACKGROUND PREPARED BY1 Improved agricultural
productivityLarger tuber, vegetable and grasses production. Improved land and plot use. Organic fertilizer, certified seed, pest management and bio-gardens.
GRADEMEFJ. MenachoANDES ETC
2 Higher household incomes 7% higher total incomes. In particular NRI. Average S/. 910 (local currency, aprox. US$ 275) annual increase. (Javier Escobal). Consumption from family gardens cuts spending at local shops and markets. Family gardens are more cost efficient, and create a surplus for markets.
GRADE MEF
3 Stronger food security Larger cereal and grain, greens, tuber and animal protein consumption in a diversified diet (Javier Escobal).
GRADE MEFANDES ETC
4 Better health and hygiene practices
Healthy practices, including hand washing (27%). (Javier Escobal). GRADE MEFJ. MenachoANDES
5 Entrepreneurship and business culture encouraged
Enhanced perception of business and entrepreneurship. Business as a complementary activity to the household’s main occupation (Jorge Chavez Tafur).
GRADE MEFANDES ETC
6 Financial education Greater trust in financial institutions (14%) (Javier Escobal).Greatest impact from inclusive businesses that mostly use training provided by the program (Jorge Chavez Tafur).

Evaluations
• Few programs operate in areas of relevance to rural youths who have probablyalready improved their human capital thanks to JUNTOS health and educationconditionalities. Nor are there many programs that will help the neediest intheir journey to join the labor market.
• Programs like Haku Wiñay aim at filling this void. However, this is a dauntingthat requires designing strategies to provide a flexible menu of options thatwill evolve as vulnerabilities and capacities change, and that can tap the assetsavailable to the various types of rural poor.
• Haku Wiñay – Noa Jayatai is aiming at strengthening the links betweenproductive inclusion and social assistance interventions, exploring synergieswith Juntos to build up resilience in targeted households through anintegrated model.
