Evaluation management system: the case of productive options program in its aspect of co-financing in the region III of Yucatan, Mexico.

Abstract

The administration and the impact of the productive projects funded through the Productive Options program in its aspect of co-financing in the Yucatán III region with emphasis on employment generation and improvement of the general conditions of welfare of the families were assessed. We found that the program has been partially successful in this region of the entity in the generation of jobs. That permanence of the projects contributed 80% of the self-employment generated between the members of the supported groups. The single program is improving the income level of some few of the beneficiaries of the same in the municipalities of this region and in general is not contributing to improve the quality of life, the latter is due to other support granted by the State or federal Government. The problem that exists in the program administration is limited mainly a: excessive demand of requests for support in the Ministry of community and Social policy, allocation of resources did not always objective, delay in the response to the beneficiaries, the monitoring of projects is not appropriate and there are coordination conflicts that do not allow the signing of partnership agreements between the Secretary of Social development and the Ministry of community and Social policy.
