Kenya and Tanzania on Friday launched a project in partnership with the African Confederation of Cooperative Savings and Credit Associations to boost financial inclusion in the two countries.

Anaweza: She Can, launched by IFC, is a wide-ranging program to empower women across Tanzania's economy to access financing, attain leadership positions in the private sector, and launch or grow businesses.

The bouquet of financing will enable CRDB to significantly impact the socio-economic growth of the region by empowering small businesses, especially women, and unleashing their full potential.
