Asungtaaba Basket Group Sharing Fund

The Asungtaaba community's women's group set up a self-financed fund for mutual support using a blue box, one of many women's work and support groups across northern Ghana and the world. These groups fulfill important social, economic and community functions and have evolved a way or working, organizing and collaborating over generations. Unfortunately, they are too often ‘improved’ by well-meaning outsiders and formal structures and procedures put in place. This often creates conflict and many groups have been destroyed and communities damaged. But, that is another story…

In this video Baraka’s Country Manager, Alfred Akolgo, interviews a spokesperson from the Asungtaaba community’s women’s group. She discusses how they have set up a self-financed fund for mutual support using a blue box. Very interesting and informative.
