The Create Experiment

Using Small Businesses to Empower Women

EXPERIMENT Idea: Micro-Economic Business
EXPERIMENT Rationale: Malawi is among the five poorest countries in the world.  Because of this, majority of the people rely entirely on agriculture to have food to feed their families.  When the country has shortage of rainfall, as has been the case in recent years, people have nothing to eat and they starve.

Our micro-economic business provides small loans to women and help them start small businesses to take care of their families and develop their communities.

Idea still in the works:

The CREATE experiment is an idea still in the pipelines.  We have a group of talented people around the world working together to make it a reality.  The experiment will be executed by one of our young and dynamic leaders currently living in Australia [Malawian born and raised], a group of students from the United States, and a group of students from Malawi in conjunction with women from Kwanjana Village.  CREATE is a true product of the globe.
