Rural Enterprises Project- Phase II
The project builds on and expands the first phase, which was located
in the Ashanti and Brong-Ahafo regions and benefited 16,000 families.
The second phase adopts a decentralized approach that was pioneered in the first
phase with the active involvement of district assemblies and associations of
local entrepreneurs.
The project's overall goal is to build competitive micro and small enterprises
in rural areas in eight out of Ghana's ten regions. The Government of Ghana works
with its development partners, including IFAD, to provide rural poor people with
good-quality, easily accessible and sustainable services and training in:
-
business development
- rural finance
- technology transfer and promotion
- partnership building and policy dialogue
- project management
