The primary goal of the Enterprise Development Fund (EDF) is to accelerate economic recovery by providing financial support to Micro, Small, and Medium-Sized Enterprises (SMEs) negatively affected by crises. This fund not only helps businesses stay afloat but also contributes to the creation of new job opportunities. SMEs facing economic difficulties are given the chance to continue their operations with the support of the EDF and can participate in restructuring processes. This allows not only the recovery of businesses but also the revitalization of local economies where these businesses are located.
Additionally, another important objective of the EDF is to create sustainable livelihoods and promote inclusive business models. While prioritizing projects that support environmental sustainability, the fund also encourages the participation of marginalized groups in the economic system. The EDF takes into account not only short-term solutions in the economic recovery processes but also long-term sustainability goals, thus helping to ensure lasting economic development in regions affected by crises.
