Today in
human geo, we went over our class power point in huge detail. We will have one
more test, on microfinance, before the final exam. After the final exam, that
will be the end of human geo and we will switch into west civ after the winter
break. Some of the notes from today’s class are;
· Microfinance – the supplying of
financial services to people who need a “kick start”
· Microloans – loans given to people
who need it to provide them the money they need
o
Microloans
help
§ Starting a small business
§ Provide insurance
§ Improve infrastructure
Microfinance
helps the developing countries try and eliminate things like malaria, improve
the problems that drought causes, and help with clean water.
Microloans
are available to middle class to financially troubled people. It is most common
in developing countries because they don’t have access to a bank.
That was
most of the notes from class today, so until tomorrow.
