Felistus Coutinho, Managing Director of Tujujenge Tanzania

Felistus Coutinho is the Managing Director of Tujujenge Tanzania, an innovative microfinance institution that is providing loans for clean energy (www.tujijengeafrika.org). In this podcast interview with host Paul Rippey, Felistus talks about all she has learned over the last decade of lending for clean energy. After some false starts, Felistus’ clients said, “Give us a vision, and we will find the means”, and so she learned how to give them clean energy, and they are indeed finding the means: demand is high.
