Faith-Aligned Digital Lending for Financial Inclusion in Uganda
Designing and testing faith-aligned digital lending tools to expand affordable finance for Ugandan micro-entrepreneurs.
Faith-Aligned Digital Lending for Financial Inclusion in Uganda builds and tests a culturally compliant micro-credit model for Muslim and other values-aligned entrepreneurs. Over the next year we’ll conduct 80+ interviews across five districts, co-design a low-cost no-code prototype to track loans and repayments, and formalize partnerships with mosques and civic groups. Our goal is a scalable “faith-aligned” product line ready to integrate into an asset-based digital lending platform.
Knight-Hennessy scholars represent a vast array of cultures, perspectives, and experiences. While we as an organization are committed to elevating their voices, the views expressed are those of the scholars, and not necessarily those of KHS.
