    Microfinance/Women’s Empowerment in Sierra Leone: Civic Entrepreneurship, Advocacy and the Power of Partnerships
    (2017-04-11) Hook, Sara Anne; Tonsing, Betty
    This poster will highlight microfinance/women’s empowerment projects in Sierra Leone, administered by Right Sharing of World Resources (RSWR) and funded by the Rotary Club of Indianapolis. This example of civic entrepreneurship will demonstrate how providing women with the opportunity to start their own small companies contributes to building a support system and sense of community and addresses the need for social, economic and political stability in a country recovering from civil war and devastating disease. The poster will feature the results of efforts to redesign the RSWR website and develop a social media marketing strategy.
