| Welcome
to the latest issue of Countdown 2005, the newsletter of the Microcredit
Summit Campaign. This issue features an interview with the President of Canadian
International Development Agency (CIDA), Len Good, on CIDA's role in how Microcredit is
shaping the 21st century. We have reprinted excerpts from the speech made by First Lady
Hillary Clinton at the Beijing Plus Five Conference. The Action Plan presentation featured
in this issue is that of Pro Mujer/Bolivia, a South American microcredit institution. This
issue's Best Practices examines the key topic of recruiting, training and retaining excellent
staff.
