The basic building block of the Microcredit Summit Campaign is the Institutional Action Plan. Each Council Member institution agrees to create its own Institutional Action Plan, specifying the contributions that it intends to make toward the fulfillment of the Summit's goals. An institutional action plan contains quantitative goals, a description of methods, and a time table.

To assist in the development of action plans that reflect the principles outlined in the Microcredit Summit Declaration and Plan of Action, and to facilitate the sharing of bold and innovative plans, the Secretariat developed Institutional Action Plan Forms.

We have updated the 2010 Institutional Action Plan forms and they are now available to download from the menu below. (For versions in Spanish or French, click on the tabs at the top of the website).

Please download the Action Plan appropriate for your institution in Microsoft Word format from the menu below, complete it, and either print and fax the form back to: The Microcredit Summit Secretariat at +1-202-637-3566 or e-mail it to: info@microcreditsummit.org.

If you have any questions, please contact the Secretariat at: info@microcreditsummit.org.

MCS Logos

Putting the MCS logo on your website or blog is one of the most impactful ways for organizations with approved Institutional Action Plans to show their involvement with the Microcredit Summit effort to end global poverty. For institutions that submitted an IAP this year, we also have special banners available to show our appreciation of your participation in helping us meet our goals. If you would like us to send your organization MCS logos, banners, or any other digital materials please e-mail our Program Manager Sabina Rogers.
