The Ministry of Human Development signed agreements with 16 local governments of the province for the execution of the Microcredits for Local Promotion program, which aims to strengthen production and expand commercialization opportunities for entrepreneurs.
The ceremony was led by the Minister of Human Development, Verónica Berisso, together with the mayor of Concordia, Francisco Azcué, and the Minister of Government and Labor, Manuel Troncoso; and the Secretary of Social Management, Pablo Omarini.
On this occasion, the following municipalities and communes signed: Concordia, Chañar, Colonia Hocker, Gualeguaychú, Colón, San Salvador, Federal, San José, Chajarí, Ibicuy, Larroque, Ceibas, Ubajay, Villa Paranacito, Urdinarrain and Pueblo Belgrano.
"We believe in the people of Entre Ríos, and this is a clear example of what it means to bet on them," emphasized Berisso, and added: "We always say that on an entrepreneur's path, which can sometimes be rough and other times beautiful, a company can be born. That is why our task is to support those proposals and foster their autonomy."
"With these microcredits, resources are injected into the localities, local economies are dynamized, and the autonomy of entrepreneurs, who are the true protagonists of development, is promoted," concluded the Minister.
For his part, Minister Troncoso maintained: "We are reaffirming the commitment of the Government of Entre Ríos to support, through the municipalities, those who produce, generate employment, and transform their communities. We thank the municipalities and communes, not only for this specific microcredit program, but for all the joint work with the province. This tool is one more step to strengthen local production and development from within the community itself."
Meanwhile, mayor Francisco Azcué highlighted that the action responds to what Governor Rogelio Frigerio proposes, "to work together, as in this case, between the technical teams of the municipalities and the province to move the communities forward." And he highlighted the importance of public-private integration: "We believe in a present State, accompanying the private sector. We politicians are not what is important; rather, we are facilitators, and at the center of the scene are the entrepreneurs, business owners, civil society, and intermediate institutions."
This tool will allow entrepreneurs to access financing intended to reinforce working capital, acquire supplies, improve processes, and expand their productivity. The program is implemented on a rotating basis, with a flexible guarantee scheme, and is executed in coordination with the municipalities and communes, which, together with the Ministry of Human Development, are in charge of arbitrating the application and fund allocation processes in their territories.
