IRC's work in Latin America focuses very much on Honduras. There, we support the national government in the development and application of a service delivery approach. In addition to Honduras, IRC also provides advisory services and carries out research in other countries in Latin America and at regional level. Examples include a study on the impact of support to rural service providers in Colombia and the support to the development of monitoring indicators, and their application in El Salvador and Paraguay.
