Testimonials

“We rely on the co-operative model to strengthen the role of producers. We focus our efforts on rural women entrepreneurs, through processing, marketing, and support services, to enable an inclusive and sustainable reconstruction of our country.”

  • Sofia Burtak
    President of the Rural Women Entrepreneurs Association and founder of the Co-operative Academy, Ukraine

“Socodevi and its projects played a key role in our organization. With their support, we were able to secure major contracts and position our cocoa on national and international markets. What once seemed like a dream is now a reality.”

  • Ms. Claribeth Navarro
    Legal Representative, ASOSEYNEKUN, Colombia

“When someone is part of a co-operative, it usually means they can provide for their family—and that is what we are observing.”

  • Mr. Eugene Asare, Municipal Directo
    Department of Co-operatives in Ghana – Tepa

“A woman without income or financial tools to plan her agricultural season remains trapped in a high-risk system. Financial training changes this reality: it allows her to set up savings mechanisms, plan her expenses, and define production goals. Agricultural insurance is a key risk management tool, for example in cases of drought.”

  • Elisabeth Yaka-Thione
    Project Coordinator, Resilience in Casamance, Senegal

“We have improved our self-esteem. The training helps us to become strong leaders and support our colleagues in the community, so they overcome the fear of giving their opinion, asking to speak, and participating in all activities!”

  • Silvia Padilla Céspedes
    Delegate of the local committee of tara producers, Alto Seco, Bolivia

“MUCREFAB gave me access to credit. I can now receive cassava deliveries by truck. Through cassava trading I provide for my children. Thanks to MUCREFAB, I can afford to pay for my children’s schooling. Socodevi has helped me tremendously.”

  • Djouka Angele
    Trader and member of MUCREFAB, Ivory Coast

“Financial training taught me how to save. Thanks to that, I can pay for my children’s education and build a house that I can rent to generate additional income.”

  • Mariama Djamanka, member of the Kissal Patim co-operative
    Kolda region, Senegal
