3rd European Microfinance Award on Value Chain Finance
Prepared by Joost de la Rive Box in collaboration with the e-MFP Rural Outreach and Innovation Action Group, July 2011.
The 3rd European Microfinance Award 2010 on “Value Chain Finance” focused on stimulating and promoting inclusive financial schemes that contribute to the evolution of value chains in developing countries. The idea is to support project development from the initial inputs through to the commercial outputs, enhancing the livelihoods of people at all levels of the value chain.
This publication features the winner (Harbu, Ethiopia), two finalists (IDEPRO Microfinance Institution, Bolivia and Partner Microcredit Foundation, Bosnia & Herzegovina) plus the other semi-finalists as case studies in value chain finance initiatives.
