Abstract
This analysis reviews a comprehensive program carried out by an American international nongovernmental organization (INGO), the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee (AJJDC) during the 2001 Argentine economic crisis. The study shows that there are four elements that are critical in such situations: simultaneous social assistance, economic revitalization, and community renewal inputs; capacity building for individuals and institutions; an integrated approach; and active community outreach and participation.
