CoAlive believes in and supports community-driven enterprises that are essential for livelihoods by empowering local communities. With the Community-based business development, we are able to establish locally owned businesses that generate employment and economic self-reliance. We do this through:
Value addition—through different activities such as processing, packaging, branding, and marketing of farm produce like vegetables. Through this, we are able to enhance the economic growth of local products, helping communities access new markets and development.
Financial literacy is promoted through Village Savings and Loans Associations (VSLAs) programs. Through this, we are able to nurture a culture of saving and investment, enabling community members to have access to financial resources and manage their finances sustainably.
