Midi de la Microfinance: Supporting Young Entrepreneurs in Developing Countries
Nearly one in three people in the world is a young person and almost 90 percent of them live in low- and middle-income countries. Moreover, facing the prospect of unemployment, poverty, and vulnerable forms of employment, this young and dynamic segment of the population tends to look abroad for better opportunities.
