Since its inception in 1953 Mennonite Economic Development Associates (MEDA) has been committed to local ownership and sustainable outcomes. MEDA is currently working in over 37 countries around the world. Our goals are to use a business-oriented approach to international economic development that results in sustainable enterprises for t h e benefit of the poor and help them in business to ameliorate their livelihood conditions. Our development values are wealth creation by adding value in managing human financial and environmental resources; participation of those with whom we work - at all stages and levels of a project - regardless of gender race class ethnicity nationality or religion; collaboration with others engaged in development to avoid duplication and competition; sustainability both programmatically and environmentally; and direct investment in businesses that serve the poor. With support from the Government of Canada MEDA is implementing Resilience and Inclusion through Investment for Sustainable Agrikultura (RIISA). This project aims to support inclusive economic opportunities in the poor rural areas of Mindanao (Davao Region and BARRM areas) in the Philippines and to increase the productivity of cacao farms and enterprises particularly those led by women while promoting gender equality and resiliency in communities vulnerable to conflict and climate change.
