Linking a microcredit scheme to conservation compliance.

Read this blog about the Greenfi/Mwambao microcredit scheme posted by partners Fauna & Flora International.

“Borrowers have to commit to actions that contribute to effective implementation of local conservation measures; some join a daily patrol to increase surveillance efforts, others plant mangroves in areas suitable for recovery.
