Tijara Video Series: Microfinance Artistry - Keeping Art Alive

In advance of the June Note From the Field on the state of microfinance in Iraq from USAID-Tijara, Microlinks is featuring a series of videos from the program to give you an inside look at the progress on the ground. The USAID Tijara Provincial Economic Growth Program is a five-year initiative to promote economic growth and employment in Iraq by increasing private sector access to finance, in particular for micro, small and medium enterprises.

A young artist is keeping the art and culture of Iraq alive for the people of Kirkuk in a gallery and art supply business he established with assistance from Al-Aman, an Iraqi microfinance institution supported by the USAID Tijara Provincial Economic Growth Program.
