OFFICIAL VISIT TO EIP IN ECUADOR Our Proyecto de Inclusión Económica USAID-WOCCU (Economic Inclusion Project) recently had the honor of welcoming Dr. Tracy Carson, Director of the Office of Foreign Assistance at the U.S. Department of State, to Quito, along with officials from USAID Ecuador and the US Embassy Quito Ecuador. The meeting allowed USAID and World Council of Credit Unions (WOCCU) to demonstrate the transformative impact the Economic Inclusion Project is having on the lives of Venezuelan entrepreneurs, who shared their stories and highlighted how the Project has helped them develop their businesses, become financially inclusive and strengthen their economic autonomy. As of September 2024, EIP has helped 11,530 people start or strengthen their businesses, while giving more than 181,000 people to access the formal financial system, opening up new opportunities for their families and communities in Ecuador and Peru. Thank you for your visit, Dr. Carson! #financialinclusion #eip #woccu #venezuealans #ecuador

Thank you to ФУЛМ Штедилница / FULM Savings House, CEO Eleonora Zgonjanin Petrovikj and the entire FULM team for recently hosting our European Network of Credit Unions (ENCU) in North Macedonia! Our visit coincided with FULM’s 25th anniversary, marking a quarter-century of service to their communities! We’d also like to give special thanks to North Macedonia’s Ministry of Finance, National Bank, Ministry for Digital Transformation, Committee on Finance and Budget, and Committee for Equal Opportunities for Women and Men within the Parliament. All official representatives expressed a strong willingness to learn more about the global credit union movement and the critical need for proportional regulations that level the playing field for non- bank financial institutions. #internationaladvocacy #creditunions #advocacyinaction
