Fostering social capital through NGO design

Abstract

Across rural Bangladesh, non-governmental organizations are offering poor women economic opportunities and access to social development. Findings outlined in this article suggest the social implications of micro-credit lending via the Grameen Bank can be as powerful as the economic implications. In a village-level assessment, Grameen Bank members’ gradual social capital formation was evidenced in evolving trust and expanded networks.
