Olly Donnelly (Executive Director) and Brooke Johns (Secretary) will be travelling to India on Monday 19th July for a variety of meetings and a host of reasons.  One of the big concerns in microfinance is that the beneficiaries start up enterprises but demand is limited and they are not at all lucrative. 
One of our priorities is to research some good business ideas, with the local team in West Bengal, and work out a business plan for these.  If anyone has any ideas and/or costs of traning associated with these ideas, please do let us know at info@shivia.com
Thank you!
