DESCRIPTION

ABSTRACT:

Kashf was set up in 1996 as Pakistan’s first microfinance organization, providing microfinance services solely to women. Kashf’s Enterprise Development Department, Dastkaari’s work methodology was based on the Workstation-Centre Model of Arong Bangladesh. It operated through a network of six workstations situated in different villages and one production centre located along the Lahore-Kasur Road. This case focuses on challenges that Kashf was facing in effectively managing the Dastkaari program after structural reorganization.
