‘Put poverty in the museum’

Muhammad Yunus has helped millions of women in Bangladesh by helping them get back on their feet financially. For his work on women’s self-help groups and micro-credit financing, Yunus was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2006. Yunus also founded the Grameen Bank, an institution that provides credit to the poor. In an interview with DW, Yunus says that social business organizations need to take on a more important role in international development aid work.
