As CARE celebrates its 80th birthday this year, we delve into a pioneering moment for global development: In Episode #143 Andrea Barschdorf-Hager meets Moira Eknes, the CARE icon behind the revolutionary Village Savings and Loan Associations (VSLAs). Discover how her grassroots innovation made the “unbankable” bankable, why local women now can finance health care, education and climate resilience themselves – and what this means for 21st-century development. The "CARE in Action"-Podcast is sponsored by CC Real.
