Review for Foundation for Sustainable Development, Oakland, CA, USA
I am really impressed with the organization's continued dedication to partner with organizations that combine both microcredit initiatives and entrepreneurial/leadership training to promote capacity and self-empowerment for women throughout Africa, Latin America, and Southeast Asia. FSD also has a propensity to partner with organizations that have long standing in their communities, meaning that their efforts are well-developed within the communal context. A great example is Women Together for Development (WOTODEV), a women's collective founded in Masaka, Uganda in 1998 that tries to address gaps between women's vocational and social experiences in rural and urban areas throughout the Masaka District.
