This report analyzes the institutional context of A.I.D.'s Agricultural Sector Development Grant (ASDG) Program in Niger to determine if changes need to be made before implementation of a planned Phase II. DEC abstract (PN-ABD-550)
The program is the Nigerien credit union development project, described in its final report for a 3 and a half year Phase I.1 The program recommended building a financial cooperative system of credit unions as an alternative to the traditional model of government-controlled structures.1 The report states that the movement went from zero to eleven credit unions, with 982 members.2

When the program ran, from its start year to the latest document year. A hatched bar means the start is our estimate.
Axis: award years, end from years in documents. The start year comes from award fiscal year; the end is the latest document year, so the program may have run longer.
A few documents to read first. Each opens in the side panel, with the PDF to download.
