Industree Foundation's Financial Inclusion Training

About the Solution

This training curriculum by the Industree Foundation addresses a critical gap by equipping artisans and micro-entrepreneurs with the financial and business acumen needed to succeed beyond production. It covers practical topics like cultivating a savings habit, navigating digital payments, and understanding the core mechanics of running a small business, including cost calculation, marketing strategies (7Ps), and lean production practices (5S). The program is designed to bridge the gap between being a skilled maker and a savvy entrepreneur, ensuring that individuals can effectively manage their enterprises, maximize profitability, and achieve long-term financial resilience and independence.

The Industree Foundation, founded in 2000 and headquartered in Bengaluru, Karnataka, has been working for over two decades to build an organized farm and off-farm enterprise ecosystem that empowers women economically in India and Ethiopia. Through its ecosystem approach, Industree addresses the root causes of poverty by supporting rural women from marginalized communities to establish collectively owned, market-linked enterprises. This model has delivered significant social and economic benefits—boosting incomes, strengthening social security, enhancing resilience to crises, and contributing to positive climate action.
