Dettagli del programma
Thousands of microfinance institutions provide financial services at a community level in Ghana and have changed the lives of many small scale entrepreneurs. Interns work with the staff of
AbroadGuru World to learn about all aspects of microfinance, from assessing credit-worthiness to assisting with education programs and working on the day-to-day tasks within the main office.
Through this project you will be directly involved with the process of developing small businesses in a developing country and how micro-credit can help people with limited resources and opportunities to become self-supporting and independent.
You will spend time in a completely new environment, learning about a different culture and way of life while helping to fight poverty.
Attività e turni
The role of volunteers is discussed with you each Monday morning when a team meeting is held to review the needs of the project for the coming week. Much of the work will require computer time, spent mainly on spreadsheets, so a good grasp of Excel will be useful. With the team, you will review the many applications received from potential beneficiaries to identify who meets the eligibility criteria. You may find this challenging when there seem to be so many good reasons to lend to everyone.
You may be asked to write proposals for extra funding for the project so that more funds can be secured, enabling the project to reach out to more members of the community. This project will certainly enable you to help with the day-to-day tasks and improve your understanding of this global initiative to increase lending access to the more disadvantaged members of society.
