Its actions have shown impressive results in more than 90 countries such as in Afghanistan, Somalia or Vietnam, cutting extreme global poverty by half in the past 15 years thanks to the implementation of effective and realistic projects.

ETS Global opted for the ”Business for Business” programme as a so called Business Supporting Ambassador. The donations we make are used for microfinancing small businesses, cooperatives and self-employed in developing countries through flexible loan schemes.

We believe in supporting employability of people worldwide, whether it is through our assessments solutions for the workplace or through the sponsoring of micro credits which are essential for people in creating work and income for their community or for themselves. Helping people achieving these ambitions supports the overall drive of ETS Global
