      The project

      Chanura Microfinance, een van de field partners van lokale partner Milaap, heeft een programma waarmee ze kleinere leningen verstrekt. Hiermee wil ze de zelfredzaamheid van mensen in de regio stimuleren.   

      De organisatie richt zich daarbij vooral op vrouwen in de regio Manipur. Deze regio staat bekend om haar weverijen. De vrouwen maken hier sjaals (mekhala chadors), kleding en beddenspreien.     

      Momenteel bestaat ongeveer 35% van het totale klantenbestand van Chanura uit weverijen. Bij ongeveer 25% van de huishoudens in de regio Manipur vormt weven de hoofd inkomstenbron.    

      Lokale partner Milaap verstrekt een lening aan Chanura Microfinance waarmee weverijen in de regio gefinancierd kunnen worden. Met de lening kunnen de vrouwen hun weverij uitbreiden en meer materialen inkopen.
