Once again, thanks to the generosity of the MasterCard Foundation, we are able to offer several scholarships to eligible African women development finance practitioners to attend the SMDP Ghana which features a wide range of course topics, field visits and plenary sessions, and other learning opportunities.


Apply today as the deadline is February 7.


What our previous MasterCard Foundation scholars have said about the program:

"This program came at the right time for me, and I have gained practical experience which will make a huge impact on my organization."

Delali Tagboto, Total Discount Microfinance, Ghana


"I have found the Ghana SMDP programs very useful and remarkable to my life. As a female practitioner in VSLA who had little knowledge in what I was doing, I have been equipped with skills that will help me perfect my work. Through the knowledge on MIS that I have gained, I will be able to monitor the performance of our VSLA groups and make informed decisions on improving their performance."

Linice Sanga, Creative Centre for Community Mobilization, Zambia


"To me, the best experience you can ever have is gaining, sharing, and improving knowledge and mastery of your passionate career with like-minded people from all over the world; no other experience is better than this. The SMDP Ghana 2013 was such a wonderful experience."

Cecilia Nchangnwi, Cameroon Center for Microfinance Management & Entrepreneurship, Cameroon


"I had benefited a lot on the issues of risk management and mitigation, how to manage delinquency rink, and with seeing how to involve others for effective results."

Doreen Phiri, Vision Fund Malawi
