In this short interview, Tamrat Abera explains how Mercy Corps is piloting an app from Jamii.one to digitize the record-keeping in savings groups in Ethiopia. He explains the pilot objectives, the current status of the pilot, key challenges and lessons, and plans for the next 12 months. This is the first in a short series of interviews, which will chart the pilot’s progress, results, and implications.

This resource will be useful to any organization planning to test new innovations in their savings groups. For more information, please contact Nick Meakin at nmeakin@mercycorps.org.
