Grameen Australia will deploy microfinance to generate self-employment for financially excluded people . This gives them the social support, business skills and financial responsibility to escape poverty permanently.Historically, Grameen Australia is inspired by, and is an independent replication of, Grameen Bank. In 2006, Grameen Bank was jointly, with its founder Professor Muhammad Yunus, awarded the 2006 Nobel Peace Prize for lifting millions of people out of poverty through microfinance.Our vision is to create an economically and socially inclusive world in which all humans lead dignified meaningful lives. Our mission is to play a significant role in ushering in a world of three zeroes – zero poverty, zero unemployment and zero emissions.
