Role of Microfinance in the Household-Reconstruction Process in Bosnia and Herzegovina

The authors summarize findings from an Imp-Act project study on the role of microenterprise lending in the household-reconstruction process in Bosnia and Herzegovina from 1996 to 2002. This research is one of the first to examine the impact of microenterprise credit on reconstruction and was carried out to stimulate debate on the relationship between microfinance and post-conflict reconstruction. It presents propositions to be tested in other post-conflict settings to widen the pool of microfinance recipients and, consequently, the impact of microfinance on household reconstruction.
