Chile has become the preferred test market in Latin America, in recent years the private sector from many industries used as the entry county for the Latin America market that is the case of the Chinese automobile industry, the since 2006 start it export vehicles in this country an today has share market of 8% (Chile C. , 2010) . The small size, economic and political stability make Chile an excellent country for experimentation, which can give the experience and the funds need it for AKH to start its expansion in the Hispanic market as the strategic used by Chinese automobile industry .
An important aspect of Chile which helps AKH in the strategic of entry and raise funds is the level of trade with Canada, which is US$ 2,380 Million in 2008. Since 1997 the interchange trade has grow in the range of 25% annually, becoming an important business partner to Chile in key sector of the economy such as Mining (Chile M. d.).
The Canadian companies saw opportunities in Chile and now they have important investment in this country; focus its investment in industries such as Mining, Fishing and Telecommunication. An example of these investment is Barrick gold who has a projected investment in the mining sector of $ 2,000 Million USD in the next five years (Chile S. N.) , developing a new mining of gold call Pascua Lama in the middle of Andes Mountains. This level of business relation can be an important opportunity to AKH in order to meet its goals, taking in consideration that Canadian companies in Chile could be willing to support a Canadian NGO as AKH in this country.

Therefore there is the possibility that these competitors with greater presence in the local market become a new competitor for AKH reducing its social contribution and neutralizing its action in this market.
In the governmental and regulation aspect this market offer Tax break to the private sector in order to stimulate the participation of the private sector in social project. This can help the raise support from private sector; a reduction in the level of tax to pay it is an important incentive to the local companies to support NGO projects, especially through institutions with international prestige and high credibility see Table 6.
Through the past four years studying for Social Policy and Administration, I paid more attention to the current political system, especially about social welfare sectors. I realized that the lack of supervision system is the major contributor evoking poor quality welfare services in third sectors. Lump Sum Grant Subvention System (LSGSS) is the present subvention system for NGOs. To describe euphemistically as it means, LSGSS provides flexibility to NGOs in order to make use of the subsidy on the welfare services. Nevertheless, the truth is, the lack of transparency of using funding provokes to the familiar issues as exploitation of front line social

In 2013, the European Union signed a trading pact with Canada in order both sides to increase their foreign market export and boost their economy sectors. This paper will examine the purpose of CETA and its impact on Canadian industry. The focus will be on food, drug, forestry, marine, and mining industries including water supplies in Canada.
The meeting of minds between Chile and the United States has brought about a long awaited union pertaining to free trade. Chile responded enthusiastically when presented with the opportunity to become a part of 1994's North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) but because of the issue of presidential fast-track trade negotiation authority, the merger did not come to fruition. Now, nearly a decade later -- after negotiations began in the year 2000 -- Chile and America have come to their own agreement with regard to free trade, one that is both historic and comprehensive in nature.
Bernardo O'Higgins was successful in building a two-party system and centralized government for the Chileans. Decades follow and Chile grows physically, through bouts of wars and the win of the War of the Pacific (1879-1883). This growth allowed the cou...

Looking back at the first term paper that was assigned, much of the paper dealt with many economical characteristics of the developing country. In this case I chose the country of Paraguay because I found the geography of the country to be interesting. I was also intrigued by the environmental changes and land use changes that occur not only in Paraguay, but all of Latin America. In the first term paper I discussed general topics about the countries location, surroundings, and current population. This lead to the living standards of Paraguay and looking at data for the health, education, and income of the country. This gives me something to compare to surrounding countries or the Latin American region as a whole. I also discussed the countries demographic transition, which involves the trends in death, fertility, and birth rates. With concerns to the countries economics, I covered the changes in GDP per capita and the income elasticity of food demand. In the second term paper I start out by describing Paraguay’s vast geography and identify some factors that would effect agricultural development. Much of this paper dealt with many different trends that are happening in Paraguay. For example, the land use trends in agricultural areas or the trends in the forest area, which happens to be a negative one due to deforestation. Fertilizer, irrigation, and mechanization trends also help to understand the agricultural development for a region or country. The (TFP) the total factor productivity of agriculture will tell you if Paraguay’s agricultural sector is doing well and how important it is to the countries economy. With the second term paper dealing with the agricultural sector one important part is the trend in per capita food output. ...

With the seizure of the natural products the Chilean national treasury was able to grow by 900% from 1879-1902 mainly due from the taxes of the acquired land.12 From 1902-1921 Chilean ownership of the nitrate grew from 15% to 51%, and established Chile and a global contributor in the nitrate industry.13
When looking at how well a country is doing economically, two good places to start are the health and prosperity of its people. Uruguay’s population growth is slowing and instances of infant and childhood mortality are declining. Intel. Intel. Intel.
Mexico is the top trading nation in Latin America and the ninth-largest economy in the world. No country has signed more free trade agreements – 33 in all, including the two biggest markets in the world, the US and the EU. Altogether these signatory countries make up a preferential market of over more than billion consumers. Much of the FDI in Mexico is attracted by the country’s strategic location within the North American Free Trade Agreement, which has positioned it as a springboard to the US and Canada. Other attractions are competitive production costs and a young, skilled workforce, together with political stability and an open economy.
Colombia is one of the oldest democracies in Latin America with solid functioning institutions, progressive laws, an active civil society, and one of the most ecologically diverse countries in the world. Economically speaking, Colombia has had a surprisingly turnaround over the past decade due to the confidence and business opportunities that the investors have found in its emerging market. However, the improvements made in the economy are not sufficient to ensure sustainable economic development. On May 15, 2012, the U.S.-Colombia Free Trade Agreement (FTA) went into effect, and after almost two years its effects have had a negative impact in Colombia’s economy, mainly in its agricultural sector, which constitutes 11.5% of the country’s GDP (Cámara Colombo Coreana). The farmers complain that cheap imports from the United States are hurting their sector leaving some of them almost in bankruptcy. During August and September 2013, the country was in a nationwide strike against the Free Trade Agreement, which had different areas of the country paralyzed specially in Bogota, the capital city.
The automotive industry is one of the most important sectors of the economy for every country in the world. It involves a large number of corporations and institutions engaged in the manufacturing process of motor vehicles including designing, developing, manufacturing, marketing, and selling. It contributes to the global economic growth by generating a significant return and creating a ripple effect on supporting the supply chain as well as providing job opportunities for the skilled workers (ACEA, 2016).
Government support for social economy entities is recognized in European Union, Brazil and Argentina. While in countries of Africa and Asia support is built by the citizens forums and networks on sustainable development and by United Nations agencies. Among policy themes on social enterprises are: improving access to financial resources; research for increasing understanding and visibility; capacity building; ac¬cess to public procurement.
.... Much wider and much deeper dialogue is needed between those with a stake in economic prosperity from all three sectors about how to mitigate these adverse effects without undue harm to the economic benefits produced by the market. Exploration of alternative solutions, experimentation and, ultimately, adoption of new approaches and policies are required. Civil society finances its expanded participation in social development and in cross-sector working partnerships through self-generated revenues from earned income, user fees and philanthropic contributions, along with the revenue sharing with government and new contributions from the private sector. The private sector contributes its additional funds, as well as human resources and expertise, by participating in the cross-sector collaborative projects that are co-financed by the public sector and by civil society.
The automobile industry is a pillar of global economy. Globally automotive contributes roughly 3 % of all GDP output. It historically has contributed 3.0 – 3.5 % to the overall GDP in the US. The share is even higher in the emerging markets, with the rates in china and India at 7 % and rising. China produces the highest number of automobiles followed by US and Japan (oica.net, 2015). The industry supports direct employment of 9 million people to build 60 million vehicles and parts that go into them (oica.net, 2015). Many other industries such as steel, iron, glass, aluminium, textiles etc. are associated with the automotive industry and resulting in more than 50 million jobs owed to the auto
