Pro Mujer Perú: Programs for Women

The mission of Pro Mujer Perú is to support women through loans and training programs that will contribute to their comprehensive development. The majority of these women are self-employed peddlers whose business produces an income for their families. This presentation gives an overview of the program, describes the loan process itself, and concludes with future challenges for the organization. This document was presented in the Poverty Reduction and Social Protection Network of the Regional Policy Dialogue at the 4th Hemispheric Meeting celebrated on November 11th and 12th, 2002.
