| Description | One-day consultation organised by WIDE. The consultation provided an opportunity to share experiences with speakers from different parts of the world, to raise awareness about positive and negative impacts of microcredit on women and the role they can play in tackling poverty in the European Union. Two main issues were: - Has/does microcredit really lead to women’s empowerment in the South? Which are the improvements to make and the lessons learnt in the South? - Can microcredit be considered a sustainable alternative to stimulate employment and fight against poverty and discrimination both in the Global South as well as in the EU?. .Some 40 participants met and contributed their views on and experiences from micro credit and micro finance projects in Africa, the Middle East, the Balkans, the EU, Asia and Latin America. |
