Microentrepreneurship Awards
Launched in 2005, the Microentrepreneurship Awards is a program implemented
by Mercy Corps Indonesia (MCI) that aims at raise awareness on the importance
of micro-entrepreneurship and microfinance in supporting the financial
inclusion and economic empowerment of low-income individuals. It also aims to
highlight the important role micro-entrepreneurs play and contribute in their
local economies; catalyze innovations among microfinance institutions (MFIs)
that will lead to an increase in their outreach and their micro-entrepreneur
portfolios; and to leverage awareness of policy makers within the government of
Indonesia towards enabling a supportive environment for micro-entrepreneurs
through a conducive set of regulations.
For the 2017-2018 Awards (awarded in 2018), the awards are divided
into 5 awards categories:
