Project Description
If provided by the financial institution, the Early Warning System Team writes a short summary describing the purported development objective of the project and project components. Review the complete project documentation for a detailed description.
The IADB's expected impact of the project is to increase the agricultural incomes of small producers who are members of Cooperativa Campesina Inter-comunal Peumo Ltda. (COOPEUMO). The project’s expected outcome is that small producers will be able to access medium-term financing to acquire inputs and productive assets to boost their productivity. The project will allow COOPEUMO to unfreeze its productive loan program and technical assistance in the field, through the placement of medium-term resources and the strengthening of its lending and other activities, which will boost its productivity and that of its member producers. This Technical Cooperation component specifically will carry out various activities (some by hiring consultants) to: (i) strengthen post-harvest capacities and quality of production for export, through assistance in the field in all stages of growing, as well as during marketing; (ii) improve loan management and expand the cooperative’s team of field technicians, who will also provide support in placing, utilizing, and collecting the loans granted through the project; and (iii) disseminate its activities locally with current and potential members, at the national level with potential buyers, and at the international level with regard to export products.

Contact Information
This section aims to support the local communities and local CSO to get to know which stakeholders are involved in a project with their roles and responsibilities. If available, there may be a complaint office for the respective bank which operates independently to receive and determine violations in policy and practice. Independent Accountability Mechanisms receive and respond to complaints. Most Independent Accountability Mechanisms offer two functions for addressing complaints: dispute resolution and compliance review.
ACCOUNTABILITY MECHANISM OF IADB The Independent Consultation and Investigation Mechanism (MICI) is the independent complaint mechanism and fact-finding body for people who have been or are likely to be adversely affected by an Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) or Inter-American Investment Corporation (IIC)-funded project. If you submit a complaint to MICI, they may assist you in addressing the problems you raised through a dispute-resolution process with those implementing the project and/or through an investigation to assess whether the IDB or IIC is following its own policies for preventing or mitigating harm to people or the environment. You can submit a complaint by sending an email to MICI@iadb.org. You can learn more about the MICI and how to file a complaint at http://www.iadb.org/en/mici/mici,1752.html (in English) or http://www.iadb.org/es/mici/mici,1752.html (Spanish).
