aBi Finance helps small moneylenders learn about green business through new classes. The group works with the Uganda Banking School to teach loan groups how to care for nature as they grow. Leaders started training at Fairway Hotel last week as part of 18 planned meetings across the country.
David Kaweesi from aBi Finance says loan group chiefs want to know more about clean farming loans. They learn about helping farmers buy sun-powered water pumps for dry times. Some loan groups already give money for clean cooking stoves or tree planting without knowing that these count as green actions. Teachers say these earth-friendly ways match what African villages have always valued.
Small banks face trouble when farmers lose crops to weather changes or when people think loans hurt communities. Going green brings new partners, happy customers, and better protection from law changes. Moneylenders who think about both nature and people serve villages better as they grow.
