Rural Small and Microenterprise Promotion Project

Rural Small and Microenterprise Promotion
Project - Phase II (PPPMER II)

The project's aim is to strengthen rural microenterprises managed by individuals or associations in order to modernize them, improve their management and create jobs. Priority is given to disadvantaged groups such as women, young people, orphans, landless farmers and families affected by HIV/AIDS.

The project's objectives are to:

create and build up a network of farmers' organizations, professional associations and federations to meet the needs of small businesses and microenterprises
raise productivity and standards of quality among microenterprises
provide entrepreneurs with access to financial services, non-financial services and markets
contribute to elaborating a national institutional and policy framework for support to small businesses and microenterprises

This project builds on phase I of the Rural Small and Microenterprise Promotion Project.
