OUR MISSION
The mission of the Rotary Action Group for Community Economic Development (RAGCED) is to be a source of knowledge and expertise that helps Rotarians plan, implement, and manage impactful and sustainable economic development projects and create lasting change in poor and underserved communities.
The following projects are illustrative examples based on RAGCED's areas of focus, they reflect the kind of impact RAGCED aims to achieve worldwide:
These projects provide small loans to entrepreneurs in developing countries who do not have access to traditional banking services. The goal is to empower individuals to start or expand their businesses, thus creating jobs and fostering economic development within their communities. An example could involve setting up a Microfinance institution in a rural area to offer financial services, including small loans, savings accounts, and financial literacy training.
Projects associated with RAGCED typically embody Rotary's commitment to community service, with a focus on economic empowerment. They leverage the global Rotary network's resources, expertise, and volunteer spirit to make a sustainable impact. For the most recent and detailed examples of RAGCED projects, direct engagement with Rotary International or RAGCED's official communications is recommended, as they continuously update their initiatives and success stories.
