Field mission of the Foundation's administrators in Bosnia

From November 23rd to 27th, the directors of the Grameen Crédit Agricole Foundation participated in a field mission to Bosnia, during which they met with the microfinance institutions it supports and their clients. Present in Bosnia since 2018, the Foundation has funded three partners working primarily in rural areas and whose clients include a high percentage of women: Partner, My Bospo And Mikra.

During the mission, the Foundation's directors were able to interact with partner institutions and learn more about the microfinance sector in Bosnia, a country still deeply affected by the 1992-1995 war. They also met with clients of these institutions who, thanks to the microloans obtained, are developing income-generating activities and improving their living conditions. These discussions highlighted the important role microfinance plays in the development of microentrepreneurship in Bosnia.

In addition to meeting with the Foundation's partners, this field mission to Bosnia also provided the directors with an opportunity to reflect on the Foundation's positioning and the thematic areas of the next 2022-2025 strategic plan. This reflection will continue over the coming months with the Foundation's teams and other stakeholders.
