Capacity Building for Partnerships in Microfinance: Workshop Curriculum and Trainer's Guide
The world’s microfinance industry is in the midst of unprecedented expansion and transformation. No longer simply a provider of small loans, the array of financial and non-financial products being offered by MFIs has proliferated and now includes, for example, insurance, remittances, telecommunication services, energy, water and sanitation, and health and education services. The Capacity Building for Partnerships in Microfinance –Trainer’s Manual is a workshop curriculum that has been developed by the Foundation for Development Cooperation and the Banking with the Poor Network as a series of six modules from which stakeholders can select topics according to their particular needs and context. While this trainer’s manual is aimed primarily at MFIs, those from the commercial banking sector and other stakeholders will also find these materials useful. There is no doubt that much can be learned from the huge body of work that has been built up around alliances in the business and public sectors. However, partnerships in the microfinance sector present their own unique possibilities and challenges. It is hoped that these training materials will go a long way to advancing the successful and innovative application of partnership approaches by and for MFIs. A CD-ROM version of the materials is available. To download an order form click here. Get the Guide: download an order form >>Or get more information about this Guide:
