Most self-help groups are in India, though they can be found in other countries, especially in South Asia and Southeast Asia. A SHG is generally a group of people who work on daily wages who form a loose grouping or union. Money is collected from those who are able to donate and given to members in need.

Property Value
dbo:abstract
  • Un self-help group (SHG) (grupo de ayuda) es un comité mediador financiero de una aldea compuesto habitualmente por 10–20 mujeres u varones locales. Es preferible que no sea grupo mixto. La mayoría de los grupos "self-help" están en la India, aunque pueden encontrarse SHG en otros países, especialmente en el sur y el sureste de Asia. Los miembros hacen pequeñas contribuciones de ahorro regulares durante algunos meses hasta que se cuenta con el capital necesario para empezar a prestar. Los fondos pueden ser prestados a los miembros del grupo o a otras personas de la aldea para un proyecto. En India, muchos grupos SHG están 'conectados' a bancos para la entrega de micro-créditos.

A SHG is generally a group of people who work on daily wages who form a loose grouping or union. Money is collected from those who are able to donate and given to members in need. Members may also make small regular savings contributions over a few months until there is enough money in the group to begin lending. Funds may then be lent back to the members or to others in the village for any purpose. In India, many SHGs are linked with banks for the delivery of micro-credit. (en)
