Promotion for first Village Bank - Unión Perú


At the moment, SOLAC is promoting and organizing a meeting with the potential beneficiaries of the first Village Bank in the community of Union Perú. The meeting will be held on Sunday the 8th of November in the community’s meeting room, with the aim of explaining the concept of microfinance to the population.



Following that, the people who are interested in the project will be invited to assist a second meeting in which we will explain in more detail SOLAC’s lending method, after which the first group will be formed.

SOLAC has also arranged for the NGO AVSI (www.avsi.org) to carry out the initial workshops as well as the workshops throughout the lending cycle. Together with SOLAC, AVSI is designing a series of workshops that will be adapted to the circumstances of the population of Alto Perú based on the results of our study. The topics covered in the workshops will be entrepreneurship combined with personal development and awareness such as self-esteem, gender, social responsibility, and personal development.
