Economic Justice
We believe that earning a decent livelihood is a fundamental human right. Simply put, if opportunities are not available to individuals that allow them to earn a decent livelihood, they deserve the ecology and supports that allow them to create their own decent livelihood through entrepreneurship.
We aim to contribute to the capacity of individuals to earn a livelihood and to contribute to the capacity of organizations and communities that support these individuals. We achieve these objectives through research, consulting, and training.
