Contact us about supporting EDM
EDM devises, launches
and monitors programmes for entrepreneurial development. The charity specialises
in providing training and follow-up assistance to support its microcredit
loans. They are also diversifying into product-led initiatives with various
companies to create employment. For example, EDM promotes the manufacture,
sale and use of energy-efficient gas stoves in Burkina Faso.
Our assessment:
- EDM is a strong promoter of responsible microcredit practices, ensuring
that the families who are borrowing have the right mechanisms in place
to grow their business and to pay back their loans.
- EDM works in remote rural areas as well as in city centres. In some
areas, it is the only aid agency present and the sole provider of microfinance
initiatives.
