The INCLUFIN project implemented by the NGO I-RAD aims to support the members of five peasant organizations, 90% women, to form Savings and Credit Groups to strengthen their own Income Generating Activities (IGA).
Project description
The INCLUFIN project was born from the conviction that financial education, saving’s mobilization and access to credit are the main pillars for vulnerable population’s financial inclusion, particularly for women in rural areas. Its design is based on the results of the PROEDU projects implemented by the RAFAD Foundation and the VSLA (Village Savings and Loans Associations) methodology. In addition, specific training on Income Generating Activities, financial education, environmental protection awareness and gender, completed the project.
