| description | The purpose of the research summarized in this paper is to provide policy-relevant knowledge on the governance of rural services in Guatemala and thus to contribute to improving the provision of services that are essential for agricultural and rural development.

Our main finding is that the provision of formally decentralized services by local governments is incomplete. |
