Presentation

Under contract with the consulting firm Encompass, the project will carry out the mid-term evaluation of the intervention implemented by WOCCU, a global consortium of credit unions, aimed at strengthening the socioeconomic security of Venezuelan migrants and refugees in Peru and Ecuador, through three components: support and strengthen new and recent entrepreneurs to ensure sustainable income through self-employment; facilitate access to employment through skills development; and increase access to financial services by supporting financial institutions to develop products tailored to the needs of beneficiaries.
