Project of Kastriot "MFI and Reduction of Poverty in Rural Albania"

The purpose behind the selection of the topic is that it is a burning social issue relating to development. Microcredit is considered as one of the most important powerful tools for poverty reduction and rural development; perhaps no other development tool has attracted so much global attention. In Albania it is relatively novel. Therefore, it drew my attention to learn about microcredit and see how microcredit is working in practice, especially with poor people.
