Honduras
With a per capita GNP of US$730 in 1998, Honduras ranks among the lowest-income countries in the Western Hemisphere.
During the 1980s it faced a prolonged economic decline triggered by:
- the debt crisis early in the decade;
- a large and inefficient public sector;
- extensive administrative controls that discouraged private investment;
- a trade regime biased against exports;
- inefficient financial intermediation;
- low investment in education;
- and insecure property rights.
All of which seriously discouraged savings and investment.
DFID focuses on supporting the PRS process, and developing and implementing DFID key objectives in Central America:
- Participatory PRSP process;
- the reduction and prevention of violence;
- pro-poor growth;
- the prevention of HIV and AIDS;
- transparent and accountable Governments.
DFID's strategy is to work along side key multilateral organisations and bilateral donors.
