Recent media coverage has shed light on the negative aspects of some micro-credit schemes.
SEDA runs a socially responsible program and employs many measures to avoid the pitfalls that have been highlighted.
Please read the August 2009 report, “A response to micro-credit critics” for more information about the key differences between SEDA’s projects and those that have been subject to criticism.
The report shows that SEDA relies on your donations to make a difference. Please keep supporting SEDA and the women of Laos.
We would love to hear your feedback on the report - please email info@seda-laos.org
