- In a few words, please describe your interest in microfinance.
- My interest in microfinance began while reading Muhammad Yunus' book 'Banker to the Poor' - his motives and approaches are so inspiring! I too felt that although all of the economic theories I was learning in college were 'elegant', they were not going to aid in abolishing poverty. Microfinance is working, and the more I read about its successes the more interested I become.
- What microfinance issues would you like to learn more about?
- Aside from the economic impact that microfinance is having - I am interested in learning how much of a social impact these loans are having on individuals and communities.
- Do you live in the Puget Sound region?
- yes
- Have you attended a WAM meeting?
- no
