Miguel Angel Encinas, coordinator of the Spanish International Cooperation Agency for Development (AECID) Technical Office says that Dominicans have lost confidence in political parties and the parties have lost credibility because they haven't been able to tailor their programs to the realities of the public. Encinas says that the public, especially women and young people, has even less confidence in their local government and in politics in general.
On the other hand, the AECID recently announced it has allocated EUR8 million for disaster prevention and response programs in the DR. Miguel Angel Encinas said the funds would help mitigate the damage caused by natural disasters. Nevertheless, he said the money would only be available once AECID ensures that there is an administrative structure to handle the donation.
