Report on Microfinance

Introduction:

Yesterdays we learnt Microfinance. That day the class started as usual at 9.30 o’clock in the morning. Vijay Kulkrani came over class. He thought about ‘Microfinance’. Vijay Kulkrni teaching line is very good. In the morning we were presented PPT about microfinance. I got much information in that class. Actually I don’t know what is the Microfinance? When Vijay sir took the class, I learnt many things. Now I am come to tell about Microfinance.
Key Points of the Module:

What is Microfinance? “Microfinance offers poor people access to basic financial services such as loans, savings, money transfer services and micro insurance”. It means- Microfinance is a solution to the poorest people’s incapacity to find suitable employment and take needed credit. People living in poverty, like everyone else, need a different range of financial services to run their businesses, build, property, smooth expenditure, and manage risks.

Why microfinance need? Because there is an urgent need for microfinance instates to improve their capacity to reach the poorest families. However in bank ward regions, poor people, in calculation to microfinance, need a complete range of agricultural, business development services etc. And there is need and there is business opportunity. Three things we needed to microfinance.
· Investment
· Life cycle needs
· Emergency leads

Why poor need money?
· Their income is not enough to mange crises
· Lack admission to safe formal deposit services
· To help to overcome of thanks
· To uplift the social and economic status
· To help fulfill the basic needs
· To start a small business to produce income
· To make stronger the standard of living

Types of Banks-
· Cooperative bank
· Public sector bank
· Private sector bank
· Grameen bank
· Foreign bank
· No banking finance companies


Reach- One bank branch within 5 Kms
One bank branch for 5500 population

Who are the clients of microfinance? Client are often described according to their poverty level-
· Vulnerable non poor
· Upper poor
· Poor
· Very poor
This can we obscure the fact that micro clients.

Do very poor people repay their loans? Yes, microfinance clients are excellent credit risks. The repayment rate is between 95 and 98 percent. In fact it is higher than the repayment rate of student loans and credit card debts in the joint stats. They value the opportunity to improve their lives.

Conclusion (what I Learnt):
Totally Microfinance means the rider of financial services like credit, savings, insurance, etc. It involves small amounts of money and small loans. According to word bank ‘one person who spends per day less than 1% he or she considers as being below poverty line.
I should point out this is not thanks to microfinance but rather for profit big banks. Sometimes called “banking for the poor”. Microfinance is a wonderfully simple come near that has been confirmed to make powerful very poor people around the world to pull themselves out of poverty, very poor people, other financial services, and microfinance organization.

Report on LFA

Introduction
In three days we learnt about LFA, which means ‘Logical Framework Analysis’. The first day of class started as usual at 9:00 o’clock. In the morning Batta came to over class. First we started the prayer song, then after Prekash took the class about LFA. He taught us many things. First now I will tell about LFA.
Key points of the Module
What is Logical Framework Analysis? “Log frame is a tool for planning and managing development, and it describes/summarizes a project. It looks like a table and aims to present information about the key components of a project in a clear, concise, logical and systematic way”. (Source- prakash)
Where’s the logic? “There is a logical connection between the cells of the matri. That logic that connects the cells in the left-most column is referred to as vertical logic. The logic connects the remaining three columns is referred to as level logic. It means “the vertical logic is the hierarchy of objectives of the project.” (Source-prakash)
Problem Analysis: If there is no agreement between parts of the statement of problem, is unlikely there will be agreement on the solution. This stage therefore seeks to get agreement on the detailed aspects of the problem.
LEA is best started early in activity design. It has a common and flexible application. Activity planning and management should always be approached as a team job. This means that passable opportunity should be given to colleges and key stakeholders to give input to the process and product of LFA. This can be supported by -AAAID
Why use LFA? “LFA can be a useful tool in the planning, monitoring and evaluation and management of development projects. It is not only a planning tool and should not be considered an end in itself. Clear and specific thinking about what the project aims to do and importance those aspects upon which success depends”.
Practical lessons learned:
First, the fellows were divided into groups. Next we prepared the problem tree, objective tree and project planning matrix. Then we combined. In each group there were three members. In our group were Gayatri, Chandrasheker and I. We prepared the problem trees with PPT. The problem tree is constructed by selecting a problem from the list and involving the problem to a starter problem using the cause effect basis described below. If the problem is an effect of the starter problem it goes above.

Report on Agriculture
March 11th 2009 at 9.00 AM Srikanth,Pattana Shatti,Desai, and Sangeeta Patil they are came to over class. They are working in AME Foundation. They taught about Agriculture. What I learnt in that class. First now I am come to tell about AME Foundation.
AME Foundation is a development oriented; it is born out of the concern for people in difficult farming circumstances in the midst of widespread environmental degradation. AME Foundation is committed to livelihood improvements of resource poor farmers through eco friendly farming systems.
AME foundation works with small and marginal farmers in the Deccan plateau region by generating farming alternatives, enriching the knowledge base, training, linking development agencies and sharing experience.
Agriculture development in India, now India’s position in the world, and India exports in 2006-07, developments in farming than technology developments and also Rural poverty remains a persisting problem it is means- “its proportion is declining, but not the magnitude and its remains a national concern. Today the growth rate in agriculture is gradually slackening but for GDP to grow at 8% and more.4% both for economic development and poverty alleviation”.
Then market farming, commercial farming, and the farming situation then challenges in rural livelihood-
1) Food and nutrient security
2) Self reliance in farming income generation through allied activities
3) Marketing of surplus in local market
4) Capacity building and knowledge empowerment
This much I learnt in that class. And last Sangeeta took the class. She told about LEISA. What I got in her class. “LEISA is about Low Extremely input and sustainable agriculture. It is about the technical and social options open to farmers who seek to improve productivity and income in an ecologically sound way LEISA is a concept an approach and a political message. LEISA is also participatory. It is about the empowerment of male and female farmers and the communities who seek to build their future on the bases of their own knowledge, skills, values, culture and institutions.
Afternoon Pattana shatti sir took the class and explained about “reaching the unreached farm families” in this topic I came to know about, the rural scenario, Illiteracy poor health and sanitation, migration of rural community to urban areas. After this He explained about better management of natural resources, understanding and handling market operation. This many in three days I learnt.

Thank You.

Report of Effective communication
2 days Naveen jha sir started the session at 9.00 AM. He took the Effective Communication what I learnt in 2 days in that class. Know I came to about meaning “Effective Communication”.
Definition of Communication: communication in the process of exchanging information by the us. Effective communication manse-‘It matters not so much what you say as it does hoe you say it’.
Why need effective communication for us? Because improved stakeholder response, quicker problem solving, stronger decision making and stronger business relations ship. This much we want needed effective communication.
Two types of communication is there 1) verbal communication 2) Non-verbal communication.
And these are four basic components to effective listening –
Listening means “Absorption of meaning of the word and sentences by the brain.
1) Listening with empathy
2) Listening with openness
3) Listening with awareness
4) Listening actively.
Listening with empathy means- “To listen empathy try to identify what needs the other person is trying to meet. Some time we do listen because, we do not want hear what is being said. And we fear being wrong”.
Listening with openness means- “To listen with openness, imagine you are a detective”.
Listening with Awareness means-“simply not listening we want conscious means mind full listening”.
Actively listening, there are three elements of active.
1) More types of listing
2) Basics steps of listing
3) Types of listing

1) More types of listing-
a) Informative listing
b) Relationship listing
c) Appreciative listing
d) Critical listing
e) Discriminative listing
2) Basics steps of listing-
a) Hearing
b) Understanding means-‘Thus we can say that listing leads to the understanding of the facts.
c) Evaluating-‘This is the final step of listing.
After listener is sure about his understanding, the listener now thinks whether it makes any sense or not after that.ch
3) Types of listing
a) Discriminative listening
b) Marginal listing
It means many a times it happens that the speak has much more information to provide than the listener want.
c) Projective listening
It means –‘The listener himself may have some idea about the topic the speaker is dealing with.
d) Active listing
Means –‘A person who incorporates listening with concentration is said to be actively listening.
In active listening the listener is paying full attention to the speech. This type of listening is called active listening.

Barriers in listening:
1) Lake of interest
2) Ego
3) Mismatch of perception
4) Language difference
5) Disability of hearing

Barriers mean “anything serving to maintain separation by abstracting vision or access.

What is the appreciative inquiry?
When it comes to solving your company’s biggest problems, focusing on what’s already working may be the best way to fix what’s wrong. How It Works AI involves a four-step process typically led by an outside consultant. The steps are usually done either in a...
It means “an approach to organization change that focuses and builds on the strengths and potential of an organization”.

The five phases of appreciative inquiry-
1) Define
2) Discover
3) Dream
4) Design
5) Delve
Assumptions of appreciative inquiry-
In every society organization or group something works. What we focus on becomes our reality. Reality is created in the moment, and there are multiple realities. Then people have more confidence and comfort to journey to the future when they can carry forward parts forwarded, parts of the past. If we carry parts of the past forward, they should be what is best about the past. It is important to value differences.

4 foundation questions-

1) The best experience
It means-‘tell me about the best times that I have had with over school or organization.
2) What made it exciting?
3) Values
Means ‘without being humble, what do mine value most as a human being, a friend, teacher and so on?
When we are feeling best about over’s work, what do we value about it?
What about over school or organization do you value?

Then after sir asked some questions. He wants every one of us to focus on answer. This much I learnt in class.


Thank you.
