In Haiti, thousands of families are strengthening their economic stability through savings and digital financial education. Although only 11% of the population has access to banking services, and access is even more limited in rural areas, more and more communities are adopting new tools to manage their money.
Since 2020, together with Fonkoze, we have supported the creation of community savings and loan groups (VSLA) and promoted the use of digital tools to improve the financial management of families. Through our digital solution, LISTA+, participants strengthen their knowledge on savings, financial planning, and access to formal services, fostering greater autonomy and economic resilience.
To date, the initiative has reached over 10,000 people in seven communities, with at least 50 active savings groups. Through a community learning system, each group has access to monthly training, reinforcing collaboration and shared learning. Additionally, a team of facilitators conducts group sessions and home visits.
