| Lesson | Description | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Need for a climate emergency response component in the design | The wildfires and extreme weather events of 2023-2024 affected productive assets in several Business Plans. It is recommended that future designs incorporate an emergency response component and a contingency fund within the plans. | Link |
| Territorial specialists in gender as a key factor of transformation | The hiring of gender and social inclusion specialists in the regional offices, which was not included in the original design, was key to mainstreaming the gender perspective. AgroRural recognizes this practice as a replicable model. | Link |
| Alliance with FONCODES for the gradation of households towards associative models | The collaboration with the Social Development Cooperation Fund (FONCODES) allowed households from the "Haku Wiñay" program to graduate towards associations of small producers, and this has already been replicated in 19 new Revolving Funds (FORE) in Amazonas and San Martín. | Link |
