  • Dear Friend of Freedom from Hunger, As a Public Health Researcher
    Dear Friend of Freedom from Hunger, As a public health researcher and program planner, I have spent much of my career focused on efforts to reduce maternal and child malnutrition. I have been fortunate to work for many excellent organizations from international agencies to small nonprofits. That is how I could recognize what is so potentially effective about the Freedom from Hunger approach. But let me back up. After almost three decades of international work I was discouraged by the magnitude of the problem of child malnutrition. Many approaches to ending hunger were narrowly focused and overly politicized. When I was first introduced to Freedom from Hunger, it was refreshing and exciting to see that they focus on increasing women’s financial access as well as their health and nutrition knowledge. From my work in the field, I know that women play a key role in eliminating malnutrition. Extremely poor, rural women are an untapped resource, but they are as hardworking as any others, with both determination and dreams for their children. On a trip to Burkina Faso with Freedom from Hunger, I met a woman whose small food stand sat under a tarp she had set up. She was busy selling rice and sauces – what I call West African fast food – to passersby. She told me that before she joined her women’s association she could only buy small, more expensive bags of rice. Worse still, sometimes the rice ran out before the day was over. This meant lost business and less money for her family. Thanks to Freedom from Hunger, she could now purchase 50-kilo bags of rice, making each serving of rice less expensive.

Background: Freedom from Hunger is a forerunner in integrating health protection services and products onto the platform of microfinance in order to reach the rural poor with a sustainable, affordable, reliable and effective mechanism to provide services that will help protect them against financial and health shocks. In 2005–2010, under the first Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation microfinance funding, Freedom from Hunger partnered with 5 MFIs in 5 countries to develop and sustainably offer a package of health protection services that included combinations of health education, health savings, health loans, linkages to health providers and products, and health micro-insurance to improve the health and financial stability of their clients while also contributing to the sustainability of the institutions themselves. Impact research and cost-benefit analyses from the MAHP pilot initiative showed clear and compelling

  • Health Protection Innovations Demonstrated by Freedom from Hunger and Partners
    MICROFINANCE AND HEALTH PROTECTION Many microfinance institutions—particularly those serving the very poor—have witnessed the significant impact that all-too-common health shocks can have on their clients’ ability to repay, save and flourish in their microenterprise endeavors. These institutions seek sustainable approaches that help safeguard their clients’ health while also protecting the institutional bottom line. Freedom from Hunger, a recognized expert in integrated financial and nonfinancial services for the poor, launched the Microfinance and Health Protection (MAHP) initiative in January 2006 with funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. The initiative aims to develop and test integrated microfinance and health- protection products and services that positively impact clients’ lives while being practical and sustainable for microfinance institutions (MFIs). Today, integrated microfinance and health protection services are benefiting nearly 2.3 million microfinance clients in ten countries. Health Protection Innovations Demonstrated by Freedom from Hunger and Partners Freedom from Hunger initially collaborated with five MFIs in Africa, Asia and Latin America to conduct market research and to design and test an array of health-protection products and services. Each MFI developed a “package” that combined several of the following elements to meet the specific needs of their clientele in a cohesive, efficient and effective manner. Health education . Interactive education sessions on topics such as prenatal health, malaria, dengue fever, common childhood illnesses, HIV/AIDS and water and sanitation . Training on coping with health-related financial shocks, planning ahead to face common health expenses and getting the most out of local healthcare services Health financing and micro-insurance . Health loans .

  • Freedom from Hunger and Recent Developments at PADME in Benin
    Freedom from Hunger and recent developments at PADME in Benin Davis, California. Freedom from Hunger expresses deep concern about recent developments at Association PADME, one of its partner microfinance institutions in Benin. We believe that the governance of a private organization such as PADME should not be assumed by the government for the reasons that have been officially stated. Freedom from Hunger has been working with PADME since 2006 through our global Microfinance and Health Protection initiative, aimed at developing, testing, and documenting the impact of innovative services that combine microfinance and health protection. PADME has been instrumental in implementing high-impact innovations that are making a difference in the lives of thousands of poor families in rural Benin. At the same time, PADME has been our primary partner in carefully controlled research to examine the impact of such services on the performance of the microfinance institution itself. These activities have been successful over the past two years because of the strong commitment and aptitude of PADME’s leadership, from both the Board of Directors and management. We understand that important issues have been raised about PADME’s institutional performance and we know that René Azokli and his team have been working to address them with the assistance of PADME’s partner organizations. (We note that such questions are not unique to PADME or Benin and that sincere attention to the financial performance of such institutions is appropriate.) Freedom from Hunger is prepared to collaborate with PADME and other key stakeholders in the Beninois microfinance sector to overcome any critical pending issues in order to expedite PADME’s return to its status as an independent financial institution operating in Benin.
