–GENERAL PLAN TIC OF THE UNAN LEON
I.1.

- PROJECTS TO DEVELOP DURING THE PERIOD 2002-2004
Lists of Projects TIC
For the definition of the projects it was carried out
a consultation process at the different levels coordinated by
the Direction TIC, in the same ones they think about the development
tendencies for next three years. At first instance all the projects
of interest were written down without caring the source of finance,
then we define the priorities and finally the possible donors
where the dear budget is specified for each one. For each project
a document was elaborated it bases where the same one is described
