I'm having a mental block here - just can't make sense of the second bullet point of the results of a project:

- elaboracion y ejecucion de un proyecto de letrina para el barrio XXX
- ***fortalecimiento del sistema de referencia y contrarreferencia comunitaria.***

I would have thought that "de referencia" meant the system referred to in the first point, but how does that work with what follows??

referral and counter-referral

Cities and counties have "referral" and "counter-referral" programs in the areas of planning, zoning, etc. For instance, when a county wants to carry out a plan for land use, they may "refer" it to all the cities in the county.
You can get some hits on Google with "county referral".
Hope this helps a little.
