More than 50% of the economic
activity in the Dominican Republic
occurs in the informal sector such
as micro-businesses, small shops,
street vendors, fruit stands, etc.
Since this sector has no access to,
nor support from, the formal banking
system, IDDI is providing them with
job training and credit in order to
strengthen the sector.

IDDI's micro business programs are
primarily in the slums of Santo
Domingo, and entail identifying
potential participants, evaluating
them to determine their credit as
well as training needs, assisting
them with the correct request forms,
and follow-up with the appropriate
training.
This program focuses on supporting
primarily single mothers as this
population group tends to be the
most poor and marginalized from job
opportunities. |
