Democratic Governance Project
The Democratic Governance Project is an initiative carried out by the Honduran civil society to generate information on Income Generation and Food Security with the aim of increasing the standards of democratic governance in this area. The project has two phases. During the first phase, a series of indicators are developed by the organization in charge, which seek to measure governance in both income generation and food security in order to produce evidence-based information. During the second phase, the information generated is shared with government officials and general citizens.
