MISSION

To assist beneficiaries of the Addis Ababa AIDS Treatment Project with the development of sustainable income generating opportunities.

INTERNAL VALUES

  • We appreciate each other as team members striving to obtain the same objective.
  • We offer knowledge freely and always try to work towards consensus once everyone’s opinion has been expressed.
  • We promote a friendly and safe environment for the sharing of ideas.

EXTERNAL VALUES

  • We believe in the equal moral worth of all people.
  • We respect other cultures even when their customs differ from ours.
  • We recognize the spirit of the business lives within the entrepreneur.
  • We aim to add the most value to the stakeholders in this initiative by engaging them closely in the process.

APPROACH

The Addis Ababa AIDS Treatment Project team currently serves over 1000 individuals through tight-knit community support groups. We plan to leverage and build upon this strong support infrastructure as we seek to fulfill our aforementioned mission. Initially the team will interview the beneficiary groups to understand and assess their skills and interests related to income generating activities. Recognizing beneficiaries’ practical wisdom and local knowledge, the team shall add our business perspectives to develop a holistic approach to small business creation.


One logical approach involves an alliance with a well run Micro-Finance Institution (MFI) to provide financial services and business skills support. The team plans to identify potential partnerships for financial as well as educational support. Once identified, we shall present the benefits and costs of alliances to the clinic leaders and beneficiaries.


The clinic leaders and beneficiaries serve in a client role. The Empowerment team treats this as a professional consulting engagement focused on sharing value with the beneficiaries.


Team Empowerment,
