Community-driven financial groups have been used to improve livelihoods and build resilience. Village Savings and Loan Associations are an example of these groups. A study examined the activities of these associations after external project support ended.

The study focused on eleven communities across five areas. The study's findings are based on qualitative research. It looked at what happened after the NoCTRAiN programme ended.

Further details about the study's findings are available from the source, including information about the communities and areas involved.
