EMN is extremely thrilled and proud to announce a strategic partnership with UNESCO that would focus on attracting public and private funding around UNESCO-designated sites in Europe and support nearby local communities. Furthermore, we plan to jointly develop and implement projects to foster sustainable development  and  green microfinance.

“This unique partnership aims to eventually develop a sustainable investment ecosystem, support business development for microentrepreneurs, promote sustainable farming and link it with microloans, enhance entrepreneurship resilience to climate change and so much more. It opens new possibilities for our members and brings microfinance in the forefront of #InclusiveEconomy, focusing on humans and the environment. We are thankful to UNESCO and in particular Merieme Bouamrane for recognizing this huge potential.” Jorgos Papadaks, EMN Managing Director
