March 17, 2022 UDC’s mission is to end extreme poverty through innovation and entrepreneurship. We implement a ‘poverty graduation’ program which combines targeting, savings groups, training, mentoring, and seed capital grants to support people living in extreme poverty to establish successful microenterprises. Over the next three years, we plan to almost triple the number of people we serve (from 18,000/year to 44,000/year) and expand into new countries.
Key Result Areas Consortium coordination and oversight
• Provide high-level leadership for the consortium, including developing, implementing, and tracking an annual operations plan for DREAMS.
• Conduct regular quality control visits to program implementation regions to identify areas for potential changes or course corrections, and share out key findings with the DREAMS consortium.
