International Year of Microcredit 2005
 

Fondazione Risorsa Donna
The Foundation is a private non-profit organization that aims to help women—through research, training courses and study seminars—obtain access to capital, information, technology and markets in various environments thereby providing them with opportunities to develop their own knowledge and encouraging the use of mechanisms and instruments to increase their awareness of their potential and the importance of their role in society both financially and socially. In particular, the Foundation, through specific actions in the micro credit and ethical finance sectors, proposes to serve as a cultural leader in the development of a savings culture, a financial culture and the entrepreneurship of women.

Paola Barbieri
"The international year of microcredit provides a greater opportunity for the growth of women and their families and reinforces the role of women in society. Furthermore, it represents an opportunity to pass the awareness of better and more responsible management of money to new generations of women and men."
