SIYB Level One Programme

Project document | 13 August 2010

Level One Programme is a micro-business development programme designed to help people in identifying, starting, improving and growing their micro-businesses it’s also an entrepreneurship programme for poor illiterate target groups.

Help practitioners engaged in social and economic development to effectively promote self-employment by bringing Level One “best practices” together.

The Level One programme has therefore its rightful position within the framework of Poverty Reduction Strategies, Fight Against Social Exclusion and Decent Work Country Programmes.

The Level One programme is able to build on these experiences and promotes a fully integrated entrepreneurship development approach mainly for the poor. Its main features are that it meets the demands of quite different target groups: rural and urban, with specific attention often given to women.

Secondly, all Level One packages have in common that they enhance full access for different levels of formal education (up to illiterate levels).

Thirdly, Level One packages often provide an alternative by considering running a micro-business as an individual or as a group-based enterprise or cooperative.
