Mechanisms of Intervention
PAP is implementing its activities through two interventions which use two specific financial mechanisms in order to reach its respective objectives.

The Social Oriented Component aims at tackling specific assessed poverty situations and at increasing the revenue of low-income families through the access to informal credit. The Program has herefore activated a Revolving Fund, which is implemented through the support of local grass-root associations called Community Development Associations (CDAs).

The objectives of the Revolving Fund are to provide credits to low income families, to provide them with training and follow up and to provide to the general capacity building of the CDAs.

The Market Oriented Component aims at promoting and developing micro enterprises through a Guarantee Fund that provides credits to Micro-enterpreneurs, contributing thereby to reinforce economic growth and to create new job opportunities.
