A Global Development, Aid & Service project of WFWP Australia since 2020. Taking a partnership approach between WFWP Australia and the WFWP Chapters within the Pacific Island Nations, Pasifika Micro-Credit aims to empower women in the Island Nations of the Pacific by directly investing in their business idea, economic activity or micro-enterprise with a micro-credit loan. Pacific women are under-represented among business owners and face financial barriers to start and develop businesses. As a result, female led businesses are less likely to be successful due to limited capital.
Studies show that when women are given economic opportunity, it benefits not only their families, but their community, and ultimately national economic development. Highlighting the first Global Goal: No Poverty - Pasifika Micro-Credit provides economic opportunities for women and puts poverty reduction on a faster track.
Who benefit?
· Women with low income who have viable business ideas that do not meet the criteria of banks or other traditional lenders and, therefore, are unable to access bank credit for their small businesses.
· Women with existing businesses and/or start-up businesses that have strong business plans.
