Women and youth entrepreneurs in rural India are accessing credit and financial literacy training through an initiative by India's Corporation Bank, in partnership with the Commonwealth Secretariat -  http://www.thecommonwealth.org - and the NTR Foundation.

At present, 40 per cent of India's 1.2 billion population do not have a bank account.

They face challenges such as exploitation from moneylenders, travelling considerable distances to get to banks and difficulty arranging finance due to lack of knowledge about approaching the banks and preparing the necessary documents.

Through this project, which is focused on the development of micro, small and medium enterprises (MSME), the NTR Foundation identifies promising entrepreneurs in rural communities, recommends them to the bank to receive loans and provides ongoing support for the women. India's Corporation Bank finances the project and underwrites the loans, while the Commonwealth Secretariat is the advisory partner offering finance and credit training for the entrepreneurs, strategic guidance and expertise to the bank in the area of microfinance.

This programme is providing a replicable model for the economic and social inclusion of women and youth in enterprise development that can be rolled out across other parts of India and the rest of the Commonwealth.

Women Win believes that every girl is entitled to actualise her full potential. It is her right. Sport can offer a girl a place to develop skills and knowledge that translate to life off the field - how to assert herself, use her voice, make decisions, call the shots. In other words, her "wins" ON the field, are "wins" OFF the field also.

As more girls are afforded opportunities to play, and build these life muscles, a collective impact is realised - a generation of girls will have increased power to change their lives. It is a phenomenon with epic possibilities.

On International Women's Day, March 8th Women Win is launching a ground-breaking global campaign, "One Win Leads To Another", to amplify this phenomenon. Crafted with support from award-winning advertising agency, Wieden+Kennedy, this campaign is about linking the "wins" girls experience through sport around the world, and giving people the opportunity to support those victories. Imagine if a young cricketer in Bangladesh was able to inspire a footballer in Colombia through a "like" on Facebook. Or if a female college athlete in the U.S. was able to dedicate her "win" to either of those girls through Twitter. Creating global traction for this idea relies on creating connections: One Win Leading To Another.
