Honduras: A Territorial Approach to Development presents an innovative approach to address the development challenges of the country. The document first describes the main challenges to inclusive development in Honduras identified by IDB technical staff, which results in a proposal for a Spatial Economic Strategy (SES) developed with the company GeoAdaptive LLC. The Strategy extends across and connects the entire territory, taking advantage of sectoral synergies for enhancing productivity and breaking the established inequality and poverty cycles. This innovative approach seeks to break away from the traditional sector-approach and proposes comprehensive interventions that would enable key stakeholders to maximize synergies and the impact of their actions.
