Grameen Technology Center

The New Initiatives team at the Grameen Technology Center is developing an alternative energy program that will support the use of alternative energy technologies to alleviate poverty. Village Technology is an initiative of the Grameen Technology Center (part of the Grameen Foundation). The Center focuses on technology that makes microfinance operations more efficient, creates income-generating opportunities for the rural poor and provides poor communities access to information. Our efforts support the Grameen Foundation’s mission to empower the world’s poorest people to lift themselves out of poverty with dignity through access to financial services and innovative technologies.
