  • Structural support and training provided to MFIs in Africa, South-East Asia and Latin America
  • Support for the development of networks of MFIs in Central America, West Africa and Asia
  • Support for professionals throughout the sector to ensure its long-term development in Cape Verde and Tunisia.

ADA organises also every two years the African Microfinance Week, a major conference dedicated to the development of financial inclusion in Africa.

ADA enjoys the High Patronage of HRH the Grand Duchess of Luxembourg.
