European Union finances rural development project
It may have been buried by his subsequent face off with the media, but today in Belmopan Prime Minister Said Musa signed an agreement under which the European Union will give Belize seven million Euros to finance rural development. The effort is described as taking a “bottom up” approach in which rural communities will put up projects of their own design that will focus on agricultural diversification. Signing on behalf of the European Commission was Gerd Jarchow.
