At The Solar Foundation, we are excited to start a new partnership with Change Code to pilot a web3-native Solar Impact Bond to sustainably fund solar-powered business initiatives in Tanzania and beyond.

A key component of our new Solar Savings Circles initiative is the traditional women's savings groups sometimes called merry-go-rounds or table banking. Learn more about these local informal community savings groups, common across many African countries.

At The Solar Foundation, we agree with Mercy Corps Ventures that web3 has the potential to address the interwoven, global challenges we face such as climate change, financial exclusion and gender inequality. We closely follow their work to learn as much as possible from their innovative pilots and well-written and thoroughly researched case studies and reports.

At the Solar Foundation, we are inspired by the work of Alex Honnold and the Honnold Foundation.
