The project Improved livelihood through Village Savings and Loan Association (VSLA) strengthens the capacity and economic development of women at risk of HIV/AIDS with low household incomes in the communities of Loro and Iceme sub-counties. The focus will mainly be on vulnerable rural women aged 15 to 30.
One of the outcome areas of the project will be the difference achieved in the lives of 240 group members directly by organising them into VSLA groups and increasing their capacity to access services and resources through government economic programmes such as youth and women livelihood programmes and linkages to financial and Business Development Services.
