  1. By Takuya. I and Seung Min. L POVERTY REDUCTION

  2. Contents • Where is Mexico? • Mexico and Poverty • Public Policy • Stakeholder • Decision Maker • Manner of consultation • Opinion • Question

  3. Where is Mexico?

  4. Poverty in Mexico • Poverty = the state of being extremely poor (oxford dictionary)

  5. Mexico’s National Development Plan 2007 - 2012 • Generating sustainable income and permanent employment through the government programs in which IFAD(International foodservice distribution association) participates, with a focus on the poorest and most marginalized segments of the population. • Strengthening capacities to learn from experienceand build effective methodologies for scaling up rural development strategies. • Indigenous Peoples Programme and the Environment  This programme focuses on the issue of equal access to natural resources and fair distribution of national resources, with respect to traditional and cultural heritage.

  6. Expected Results by this Policy • The policy will increase crop yields and livestock • Provide new markets for small-scale producers. • IFAD also supports microenterprise development projects • Fair distribution of natural resources • Linkages with local markets and the use of new technologies and information resources to benefit smallholder farmers. * These will contribute to poverty reduction

  7. Stakeholders • Any poor people • Rural people • Young people especially who was searching for their jobs • Women • Mexican government (such as IFAD) • Employer in Mexico

  8. Decision Makers • Mexican President, Felipe Calderon • Proposed legislation • The Chamber of Deputies and Senate • Debate, decide, and pass this policy

  9. Manner of Consultation • Public consultation conducted by the Office of the President through: • A telephone consultation center • Written consultation forms through the Mexican Postal Service • Website consultation and receipt of documents and proposals

  10. Our Opinions Seung Min: The policy is really good. It is not just subside the poverty people, but teaching the skills to be competitive. So later, the poverty people can independent from the subsides. However, Mexico gave up a lot of sovereignty. This policy is supported by IFDI, the supranational organization group. And actually, this is 8th policy with IFDI. Already Mexico done some policies with IFDI 7th time. As Mexico cooperate with IFDI more and more, the debt that have to pay IFDI is increased more and more and the sovereignty of Mexico is getting weaker. Takuya: Unlike SM, I think this policy is not good for people especially young people. I understand that by this policy, people are treated fairly, but if government/employer guarantees the jobs for those people who are young, poor, etc, those people will start to depend on guaranteed job and will not be able to stand by themselves. In some day, this will affect vastly every single person who lives in this Earth.

  11. Questions 1. One of problem of Mexico is the weak government. However, most poverty reduction policy is supported by other countries such as US or Supranational organization. If you’re a leader of Mexico, will you keep pushing the policy that helps poverty but ask to give up more sovereignty? Why? 2. Suggest one way to reduce poverty.
