Using PRA with microenterprise in Eritrea
Where feasibility studies are carried out on microenterprises the data is often 'extracted' from the client by field staff, leaving the client with no greater understanding of his or her business. This article describes participatory methods developed in Eritrea to help sometimes illiterateclients work out and forecast their own cash flows, or identify production bottlenecks. It also describes attempts to assess and monitor the social coverage of a microfinance programme using wealth-ranking techniques.
